I cannot tell you and if I could you would think I exaggerated how many hours we were in getting through the next ten miles; the road being continually covered with sheep, thick as wool could pack, all coming from the sheep-fair of Ballinasloe, which, to Sir Culling's infinite mortification, we now found had taken place the previous day.

'I don't set my traps for nothing, said his uncle, silencing him. But the boy reflected that his uncle was perpetually lamenting the cowed spirit of the common English-formerly such fresh and merry men! He touched Rosamund Culling's heart with his description of their attitudes when they stood resisting and bawling to the keepers, 'Come on we'll die for it. They did not die.

As for such a carriage as Sir Culling's, the like, as men and boys at the door told us, had never been seen in these parts. Sir Culling stood a little daunted. We inquired I particularly, how far it was to Ballinahinch Castle, where the Martins live, and which I knew was some miles on this side of Clifden.
