He could not help hearing scraps of the talk that had passed at the office between the colonel, Snaffle, Crane, and certain summoned enlisted men, Fitzroy, Cassidy, and Quinlan among them.
Scarcely knowing what he was doing, and caring less, Morrow rushed across the street, and descended upon Mrs. Quinlan, his landlady, at her post in the kitchen. "What's happened to the Brunells?" he demanded breathlessly. "Land's sakes, but you scared me, Mr. Morrow!" Mrs. Quinlan turned from the stove with a hurried start, and wiped her plump, steaming face on her apron.
He beat Quinlan out of the clinch with a well-timed upper-cut that put the youth upon his back on the green. "Now take back that 'beggar-man's' son!" shouted O'Connell. "I'll not," from the grass. "Then get up and be beaten," screamed O'Connell. The boys danced around them. It was too good to be true.
Her own shawl was really only a ragged cotton table-cover, and had, as she often remarked, "no more warmth in it than an ould dish-clout." I should observe, to make the situation clear, that the Tinkers' confraternity at this time consisted of Thady Quinlan and his sister Judy, and their married sister Maggie Smith, with her husband, and his brother, and his father, and three or four children.
At the time appointed they sat in darkness in the body of the projection room Lobel, Quinlan, Geltfin and Appel, these four and none other behind a door locked and barred. Promptly on Quinlan's order the operator in the box behind them started his machine and the accomplished rough draft of the great masterpiece leaped into being and actuality upon the lit square toward which they faced.
"All I ever want to read about that man is his obituary." "You said it!" agreed Drayton.

It strikes me the American people are a mighty patient lot putting up with that demagogue. That was a rotten thing that happened up on the hill to-day, Quinlan a damnable thing.
Quinlan, an unusually attractive young man, also a professional I.W.W. agitator, was found guilty of inciting to violence and was sentenced to a long term of imprisonment. After serving nine months he was freed because of a monster petition signed by some 20,000 sympathetic persons all over the United States.
His homely face shone with the fire of sudden interest and resolve, and, reaching for a small drawer at the right of his desk, he opened it and drew forth a folded paper which he proceeded to open before me with the remark: "Here is a report that I have kept for my own satisfaction. I do not feel that in showing it to you I am violating any trust reposed in me by the Misses Quinlan.
And likewise also I just remembered that in the excitement of getting such a sad news over the telephone I don't tell him who really she is neither." "Holy St. Patrick!" blurted Quinlan, up now on his feet. "You mean, Lobel " "Wait, wait, I ain't done I ain't hardly started!" With flapperlike motions of his hands Mr. Lobel waved him down. "It's easy a pipe. Listen! To date her salary is paid.
These words became intelligible as Quinlan, exerting his superior vocal powers, dinned out the sputtering inarticulate accents of Geltfin. "He fixed it so that you'd spill the beans, Lobel! He fixed The She-Demon Josephson. And me trusting him! "How should I be knowing that all this time him and that girl was secretly engaged to be married?
