Teddy and Billy were the two eldest, and they were brave, able boys. But Jack was the youngest, a gauchy, dawnie sort of a lad that was good for nothing only feeding fowls and doing odd turns about the house. When they grew up to be men, Teddy and Billy one day said they'd go away to travel and see the world, for they'd only be good-for-nothing omadhauns if they'd stay here all their lives.
Ulick answered vehemently. "Whisht, man, whisht, and make an end! And do you, John Sullivan, give no thought to these omadhauns, but come with me and I'll show you to your chamber. A woman's tear is ever near her smile. With her the good thought treads ever on the heel of the bad word!" "I have little knowledge of them," Colonel John answered quietly.
"You've been over the highways of the sea, farther than Franklin himself, they're telling me," said Tommy, and when Martin, laughing merrily, admitted that he had been farther south at all events, the old sailor said: "Well, well! Think of that now! But wasn't I always telling the omadhauns what you'd be doing some day?"
M'Coy, who wanted to enter the conversation by any door, pretended that he had never heard the story. Mr. Cunningham said: "It is supposed they say, you know to take place in the depot where they get these thundering big country fellows, omadhauns, you know, to drill. The sergeant makes them stand in a row against the wall and hold up their plates." He illustrated the story by grotesque gestures.
"Call the docthor, is it? God give you sinse! Sure the docthors is only a flock of omadhauns." "Is it your daughter she is, ma'am?" "She's from Ameriky, the poor mischancy crathur." "Give her a toothful of whisky, your ladyship. Sure it's nayther bite nor sup she's had the morn, and belike she's as impty as a quarry-hole."
"It is a very ridiculous name to call her." "It belongs to the Palace of Home Truths. Your mother is tired, and you you lazy omadhauns " "Well, go on," said Ben. "I see by your manner that you want me to do something. I suppose it's something a little bit a little bit not quite good." "It is perfectly good. I'll love you ever so much if you will do it." "What is it?" "I am going out this evening.
They have their ways with them which are not for omadhauns like you to understand." "Eccentric, is it?" said he. "I thought it would be some such devilment." "And I am knowing," said I with dignity, "of one lady so fine that if you don't stop talking that way of ladies I will break your thick skull for you, and it would matter to nobody."
