The room into which they emerged was at the top of the factory, and it was here in great vats that the dry sugar was melted. "We often melt down as many as two million pounds of raw sugar a day," said Mr. Hennessey. "The United States, you know, is the greatest sugar consuming nation in the world. No other country devours so much of it.
The recollection of the smack in the face she had given him soothed her that night as she lay tossing in her bed, and it was on this night and for the first time since she left Kilgobbin that the recollection of Pinckney came before her otherwise than as a shadow. He stood with the Hennessey circle as his background, a bright, good-looking figure and a gentleman to his finger-tips.
"I suppose you only saw her for a moment on the stairs?" "That was all." It was true, for Lady Enid had scarcely stayed to speak to the Prophet, having hurried out in the hope of discovering who were the "two parties" he had been entertaining on the ground floor. Mrs. Merillia dropped the subject. "Good-night, Hennessey," she said. "Go to bed at once. You look quite tired.
He remembered that he, Dark Kensington, was Brute Hennessey, somehow brought to life once before in the Icaria Desert even as he had himself regained life a second time in the vats of the Canfell Hydroponic Farm. So Goat Hennessey was his father, apparently. And Old Beard, the real Dark Kensington, vowed vengeance on Goat. Dark was able to view this with equanimity.
"No, Hennessey," she answered, with gentle decision. "I feel better, and I want cheering up. My morning was not altogether pleasant."

What was his horror, then, just as he was passing Mrs. Merillia's door, to hear a voice cry, "Hennessey! Hennessey!" Gustavus and Malkiel stopped dead, as if they had both been shot. They now perceived that the door was partially open, and that a faint light shone within the room.
I was so nervous that I sent to Mr. Malkiel while you were at the theatre and implored him to look into the matter as an expert." "Mr. Malkiel! Who is he? Do we know him?" "No. But we know his marvellous Almanac." "The Almanac person! Why, Malkiel is surely a myth, Hennessey, a number of people, a company, a syndicate, or something of that kind."
