In addition to my own letter, I had sent in the same envelope a copy of Miss O'Neil's, or as much of it as would help Mr.
Gerard had been plunged in one of those black moods in which it seems that no possible event can bring even a semblance of happiness, but it was remarkable how soon this state of mind began to give way before O'Neil's matter-of-fact cheerfulness.
Winter no longer gave battle; she was routed, and in her mad retreat she threatened to overwhelm O'Neil's fortunes. On May 6th the needed bridge members were assembled, and the erection of Span Three began.

She conducted long conversations with the objects on his bureau.
From Lough Foyle, accompanied by the Lord Slane, the Viscount Baltinglass, and a suitable guard, Lord Kildare set out for John O'Neil's camp, where a truce was concluded between the parties, Lord Sussex undertaking to withdraw his wardens from Armagh, and O'Neil engaging himself to live in peace with her Majesty, and to serve "when necessary against her enemies."
