An' so, begorra, they never stopt till it was all settled an' there was not sich a weddin' as that in the counthry sinst. It's more than forty years ago, an' though I was no more nor a gossoon myself, I remimber it like yestherday.
May I never see yestherday, if a brother of mine had property, and left it to a stranger instead of to his own that is to say, my childre I'd take it for granted that he was fizzen down stairs for the same. It was a shame for the ould sinner to scorn his own relations for a stranger."
"Well, then, no." "Nor the direction she went by?" "Well, no sir, I could not." "But are you certain it was to-day, and not yesterday, you saw her?" "Then that's what's puzzlin' me eh! let me see ay it was to-day an' I'll tell you how I know it. Bekaise it was to-day I brought the oats to Gimlet Eye you know he was harrowing the black park yestherday and was in care of Paudeen Sthuccaun.
Oh, sir dear, sir dear, sir dear hoo-hoo-hoo." "Did she send no message, good or bad, before I lay on?" "Oh, not a word, sir, only that my father killed a pig yestherday, and he wants you to go up to-day at dinner-time." "It's time to get lave it isn't, it is it isn't, it is," etc.
"Aye, yestherday afthernoon, sor, an' they've been raymanded, whativer that may mane it ought to have been rayprimanded, I'm thinkin', an' a cat-o'-nine-tails, if they had their desarts till next Tuesday!
"Very likely," he replied, in a dry but dissatisfied voice; "maybe, sure enough, that the more I'd know of it, the less I'd like of it here now is a man named Sullivan Barney, Bill, or Bartley, or some sich name, that has been murdhered, an' it seems the murdherer was sent to gaol yestherday evenin' the villain!
An hour later it was discovered that a week had elapsed between the losing and finding of the farthing. No sane person would believe that a farthing could lie for a whole week on the streets of Antrim. "Well," he said, "ye need a warmin' like that ivery day, an' ye had nown yestherday, did ye?" On another occasion I found a ball, one that had never been lost.
The word was spoken while he was oiling around for the man-killing extra service. "Pretty well knocked out, Michael?" asked Leckhard, by way of preface. "I am thot, Misther Leckhard. 'Tis the good half of lasht night, all day yestherday, and thin some." "It's tough. But if any of the other men were in, I should still ask you to go. Mr. Ford is in a pinch, and Mr.
"Why, sir, we had a cup o' tay together yestherday evenin', and, between you and me, I began, as it might be, to get fond of her. She's very pretty, sir; but I must say, that the man who marries her will get a mouth, plaise goodness, that he must kiss by instalments. Faith, if it could be called property, he might boast that his is extensive; and divil a mistake in it."
On the contrary, bedad, from the day this happened till yestherday, whin she wor set ashore at the landing-stage yonder, she'd look moighty saur at me if we chanced to mate on deck aye, faith, as saur as a babby that's been weaned on butthermilk." "Why," inquired the skipper, when we had both a good laugh at Garry and his account of the Boisson episode, "have they left, then, the ship for good?"
