Just the small men that have got up out of the muck. 'Tisn't the gintry at all. The gintry will wait a year, three years, five years, seven years for rint. The man that bought his farm or two wid borrowed money won't wait a day. 'Out ye go, an' bloody end to ye, says he. Ye don't hear of thim evictions. The man that sint it to the paper would get bate or worse.
"Sind out the rint, Joe, my darling," again bawled the widow, proving that very little said in the inner room was lost upon her. "Oh, sink you and your rint, you owld hag!" but he paid for the glass for his friend; "and may I be d d if they aint the very last coppers I've got."
But in Leinster, Munster, and Connaught, the people are paying the landlord. The word has gone round pay the landlord, whomever else you don't pay! And the priests in some cases are actually remitting the clerical dues to enable the small men to pay the rint.
"Forty millions o' goolden sovereigns, divil a less." "Thunder an' ouns, but ye startle me!" "An' we're losin' all that" "Save an' deliver us!" "Becase the English takes it" "Holy Virgin undefiled!" "To pay peelers an' sojers" "Bloody end to thim!" "To murther and evict us" "Lord help us!" "An' collect taxes an' rint." "Hell's blazes!"
He then adds: "I am not fond of coddling; but as Paddy gave his pig the best corner in his cabin because 'shure, he paid the rint' I feel bound to take care of myself as a household animal of value, to say nothing of other points." Although he was never strong after this long illness, Huxley began in 1889 to be much better.
"Thrue for you, Pether," she added; "there is not a kinder family to the poor, nor betther landlords in the country they live in. Pether an' myself, your honor, on layin' both our 'heads together, found that he offered more rint for the land nor any! tenant could honestly pay. So, sir, where's the use of keepin' back God's truth Pether, sir"
Connor, do you know what I'm beginning to think?" "No, father dear, I do not." "Why, then, it's this, that she'll be the manes of savin' your father's soul. Connor, I can look back now upon my money all I lost it was no doubt terrible terrible all out. Connor, my rint is due, and I haven't the manes of meetin' it."
An' 'tis a happiness, an' nothjn' else, so it is, even if I payed double rint wherein, maybe, I'm not a day's journey from that same, manin' the double rint, your honor; only that one would do a great deal for the honor an' glory of livin' undher a raal gintleman an' that's but rason."
The landlord's at us every day for his rint, an' we owe for the two last kegs we got, but hasn't a rap to meet aither o' thim; an' enough due to us if we could get it together: an' whisper, Condy, atween ourselves, that's what ails Pettier, although he doesn't wish to let an to any one about it." "Well, but you know I'm safe, Ellish?"
So far so good; but when the rint day came, hell purshue the testher he'd allow either of us; but threatened and abused us, callin' us names till the dogs wouldn't lick our blood. The Lord conshume him for a netarnal villain!" "That's all very well, but yait till you hear how he sarved me out," said a poor, simple-looking creature.
