Peter listened, and seemed to take an interest in all that was said, expressing now and then a doubt if the girl would marry him; the possibility that she might seemed to turn his thoughts again towards the priesthood. The bullocks had stopped to graze, and Peter's indecisions threw Pat Phelan fairly out of his humour. "Well, Peter, I am tired listening to you.
All the Tennessee historians, down to Phelan, are hopelessly in the dark over this campaign. When he falls into such a tremendous initial error, it is not to be wondered at that the details he gives are very untrustworthy.
Very soon the town began, in broken pavements and dirty cottages; going up the hill there were some slated roofs, but there was no building of any importance except the church. At the end of the main street, where the trees began again, the convent stood in the middle of a large garden, and Pat Phelan remembered he had heard that the nuns were doing well with their dairy and their laundry.
"I will grant her that privilege," agreed Judge Babson with internal relief. "The request is quite reasonable. Captain Phelan, you may take the witness into my robing room and keep her there for the present."

Senator Phelan of California, Democrat, made a straightforward, intelligent speech. Senator Beckham of Kentucky, Democrat, deplored the idea that man was superior to woman. He pleaded "guilty to
But no; that fatal habit that I've acquired of telling the truth to Fred and you mastered me and I fell. "You know, Bishop," I said, shutting my eyes and speaking fast to get it over as I imagine you must, Mag, when you confess to Father Phelan "that was all a a little farce-comedy the whole business all of it every last word of it!" "A comedy!"
