But then Alice had never pictured any one in the least like Kitty Malone. She had imagined a somewhat plain, shy, awkward girl, who would lean upon her, who would give her unbounded affection, and follow her lead in everything. Now, this sparkling, racy, daring Kitty was by no means to her mind.
Jonas Malone, requesting me to favor him with the seductions of my society the next evening to a ball; at the bottom of which, in Mr. Donevan's hand, I read, "'Don't fail; you know who is to be there. I've not been idle since I saw you. Would the captain take twenty-five for the mare?
He attempted to dash across the street, but was compelled to turn back, after being nearly run over. "I wish I could get hold of the young rascal!" he exclaimed indignantly. "Who do you mane, Johnny?" asked a boy at his side. "A boy has run off with my carpetbag," said Robert. "I know him. It's Jim Malone." "Do you know where I can find him?" asked Robert, eagerly.
"Yes," said Otto, looking back as he followed his brother, "we'll look well to the heating process and let you know when they're white hot, so have your revolvers ready, my braves!" "Och! shut your tatie-trap," cried Malone, but Otto, having shut the door, lost the advice. The night was neither decidedly light nor dark.
Gwin could not help coloring in surprise and astonishment. "I am Kitty Malone, at your service," continued Kitty. "Shall I drop you a courtesy in the true Irish way? Some of us bob like this so, and some of us step back like this," here Kitty performed a very elaborate and very graceful courtesy, then stood upright, and laughing heartily, showed rows of pearly teeth. Gwin held out her hand.
"Oh, bless you, bless you, for calling me by my Christian name," muttered Kitty Malone. "Kitty, I am inclined to take you into my confidence." "Are you, indeed? I declare you're an old dear!" "You have come to school to learn, have you not?" "Not a bit of it," answered Kitty; "I came to school to please the old dad." "Your father?" "Yes, the dear old dad, the dearest, the best in the world."
Not satisfied with this conjecture, Malone suggests that she may have been an Eliza Horden the z changed, according to Camden's rules, into s, and the aspirate sunk. Malone's foundation for this theory is, that one Thomas Horden was a contemporary of John Linde, aforesaid, and resided in the same county! Both these conjectures are absurd and unsupported by any collateral evidence.
As he staggered up the deck, reeling and sobbing hoarsely, Kate Malone ran to him. She pointed out across the waters ahead of the ship. There rose the black shadow of the shore and under it a thin line of white the breakers! Now by McTee's direction the rafts were hoisted and dragged over the side of the ship, while one frail line of men remained to struggle against the encroaching flames.
Thereupon Packer went to the rear of the stage, leaned through an open doorway, and spoke deferentially: "Mr. Potter? All ready, sir. All ready, Miss ah Malone?"
If it's any good we can find some fellows to help us hold it somehow. I'm not going to let this slip into Maurice Vane's hands without a struggle." "Talk is cheap, but it takes money to pay for railroad tickets," went on Malone. "I've got the dust, Pat." "Enough to fight Vane off if he should come West?" "I think so. I met a rich fellow last week and I got a loan of four thousand dollars."
