He wanted to say that he intended from now on to do a little haunting on his own account but he did not know just how to break it gently. And then Roger returned from the cellar with the bottle of sherry. As he was uncorking it, they heard the shop door close, and Mrs. Mifflin came in. "Well, Roger," she said; "if you think so much of your old Cromwell, you'd better keep it in here. Here it is."
Then suddenly he heard the sound of a voice, speaking very low, and another voice answered it. At that Georgie's heart sank, for this proved that there must be at least two burglars, and the odds against him were desperate. After that came a low, cruel laugh, the unmistakable sound of the rattle of knives and forks, and the explosive uncorking of a bottle.
Here they met, and Frank, after uncorking a bottle of poteen, addressed them to the following effect: "Boys, there's great excuse for me, in regard of my fight wid Mike Reillaghan; that you'll all allow. Come, boys, your healths!

Hardy, whistling softly, rose and walked round the room, uncorking medicine bottles and sniffing at their contents.

"When did you have the last, Swann? Shall I ring for the nurse?" The invalid shook his head impatiently.
