Well, the Desmonds found out on a sudden that the Dons were such desperate Paladins, that it was madness to meddle, though they were five to one; and poor Davils, seeing that there was no fight in them, goes back for help, and sleeps that night at some place called Tralee. Arthur Carter of Bideford, St.
He laid a big, flat, tropical hand, which gave the impression of being splayed, on the girl's shoulder. The gallant words of the Mayor a chivalrous mountain man had set dark elements working. As the new master of Tralee stepped forward, the Young Doctor could not help noticing how large and hairy were the ears that stood far out from the devilish head.
She was about to interrupt him, but he waved a hand reprovingly and added with kindly irony: "Yes, we both know you don't need a tonic out of a bottle; but it's just as well other people should think that the tonic bringing back the colour to your cheeks comes out of a bottle and not out of a health resort, called Slow Down Ranch, about four miles to the north-west of Tralee."
A parish priest within twenty miles of Tralee, who subsequently left the Church I will not say on account of his thirst, though, as that was unquenchable, it no doubt conduced to his retirement came into the parlour of the manager of the bank with two farmers to have a bill discounted.
I was in and out of Castleisland, but though I had a sheaf of threatening letters, I never met with any insults or received a threat to my face. Only once did I overhear any hostile mutterings. This was when I was driving out of Tralee, and my coachman stopped to give a message in the dusk at a house on the outskirts of the town. Suddenly two or three men came up, and one said:
Didn't he tell me Joel Mazarine married first whin he was eighteen years of age; an' his daughter was married whin she was seventeen; an' her son was married whin he was eighteen an' Joel's a great-grandfather now. An' see him out there with her that looks as if the kindergarten was the place for her." "Do you go to Tralee often?" asked Burlingame. "Aw yis. There's a job now and then to do.
He did not know what it was like, except that he had seen it make men do silly things, just as drink did. He did not know whether he was in love or not. It was absurd that a man should be in love with a face at a window a face with the beauty of a ghost rather than of a real live woman. Orlando had little evil in his nature; his eyes did not look towards Tralee as did Burlingame's eyes.
Here am I, with all my blood for generations Saxon, and yet I feel French. If I'd been born in the old country, it would have been in Limerick or Tralee. I'd have been Celtic there." "Yet Barode Barouche is a great man. He gets drunk sometimes, but he's great. He gets hold of men like Denzil." "Denzil has queer tastes." "Yes he worships you."
In the early days of December, 1858, the swoop of the government was made on the members of the "Phoenix Society" in Cork and Kerry, and arrests followed shortly after in other parts of the country. The trials in the south commenced at Tralee in March, 1859, when a conviction was obtained against a man named Daniel O'Sullivan, and he was sentenced to penal servitude for ten years.
It was well for Luke Asgill, therefore, that none lived nearer than distant Tralee. It was still more fortunate for him that there was one in the house to whom the treatment of such a wound as his was an everyday matter, and who was guided in his practice less by the rules of the faculty than by those of experience and common sense.
