Dorothy was no longer of her father's party; he had a suspicion that Mulready's attitude had made it seem advisable to Calendar either to leave the girl behind, in England, or to segregate her from his associates in Antwerp. If not lodged in another quarter of the city, or left behind, she was probably traveling on ahead, to a destination which he could by no means guess. And Mrs.
A room was fitted up at the mill, and ten of them were quartered here, and upon the day after their arrival the new machinery started. Now that the step was taken, Mr. Mulready's spirits rose.
"Whisht there now," said Joe; "we'll be doing very well without a light; but why wasn't you down here earlier, Mr. Thady? We two have just come from mother Mulready's, an' by rights, as you've come round agin, you should have been there with us." "Never mind that, Joe, but come out; I want to spake to you."
"On your solemn oath don't you remember mentioning that gentleman's name to the prisoner with reference to his visit to Mrs. Mulready's?" "What, Jonas Brown's name?" "Yes." "Faix I may." "Don't you know you did?" "Faix I don't." "Didn't you threaten your master, that if he did not attend the meeting, some of the boys would swear against him, before Mr.
Divil a toe though you stirred to come to mother Mulready's when we axed you, in spite of the oath you took on the holy cross; but you're quick enough coming among us now you're in the wrong box yourself." "Asy, Dan," said Joe; "what's the use of all that bother now; an't he here? and hasn't he rid us of him that would have got clane off from us, but for Mr.
"Yes, you did; and you think he ought to have gone?" "May be av he'd gone there, he'd never have stood here this day." "You wanted him to go to Mrs. Mulready's, then?" "Wanted! No, I didn't want nothing about it." "You only asked him to go?" "Jist as I towld you; I said av he guv the boys his word, as a man he shouldn't go from it." "Did you say anything to him about Mr. Jonas Brown?"
He, after having pointed out the cabin, of course did not wait to be recognised by its occupiers. This capture was the subject of the discussion held on the fair-day at Mulready's whiskey-shop in Mohill, at which Joe Reynolds the prisoner's brother had presided, as Brady informed Thady Macdermot, or at any rate had taken the most noisy part.
The injuries done by the police were not, however, the only subject discussed at Mulready's that night. Ribbonism, about 183 , was again becoming very prevalent in parts of Ireland, at any rate so said the stipendiary magistrates and the inspectors of police; and if they said true, County Leitrim was full of ribbonmen, and no town so full as Mohill.
"Well, now, on your oath, have you ever, in the prisoner's presence, heard such language used respecting Captain Ussher as made you think that he was to be killed?" "Didn't I tell yer honour I thought all along how he'd be killed." "Were you ever at Mrs. Mulready's in Mohill?" "I war." "Did you ever hear Captain Ussher's name mentioned there?" "I did."
"Now tell the jury as nearly as you can what was said respecting him there." "Why a lot of boys swore together over a noggin or two of sperrits, to put him undher the sod that's all; but shure, yer honour, Mr. Thady, that's him there," and he pointed to the dock, "was niver at Mother Mulready's." "Well, but when the boys swore to put the Captain under the sod was the prisoner's name mentioned?"
