we can't talk to you here. Won't you get up and come down to the
hall, and let us tell you what is the matter? Bruin is the only living
creature there, and he'll not let out a sound if we tell him that you
are coming."
"Yes, I'll be with you in a minute," said Bridget.
She rose quickly, dressed almost in a twinkling, and a few minutes
later was standing with her cousins in the great entrance hall of the
Castle.
They quickly told the first part of their tale—all about Janet, and the
challenge which had passed between them. Biddy was just as
fearless as her cousins, but she, too, was superstitious, and she felt
a catch in her breath, and a sudden sensation of respect for Janet,
when the boys told her how absolutely indifferent to fear she was,
and how willing to spend three hours alone on the haunted island.
"We went back for her sharp at eleven. Poor little spunky thing! she
hadn't a scrap of fear when we left her. There she stood, smiling and
nodding to us, with that stupid old novel in her hand, and just
making us believe that she was going to have quite a good time; but
when we went back she was nowhere to be seen. As sure as you are
there, Biddy, there wasn't a sight of her anywhere."
"The Witch came, of course, and took her away," said Gerry. He
shook all over as he spoke.
"Don't be a goose," said Biddy. "Let me think; it couldn't have been
the Witch."
"Why, of course it was, Biddy. Who else could it have been? She's
gone; she's not on the island; and you know the stories of the Witch
—how she does appear on certain nights when the moon is in the
full."
"Yes, I know that," said Bridget. "She does appear, and she frightens
folks, and perhaps goes the length of turning them crazy; but she
doesn't spirit them away. How can she? Oh, do let me think. Don't
talk for a minute, boys; I have got to puzzle this thing out."
The boys did not say a word. Gerry stooped crying, and Pat fixed his
big eyes gloomily on his cousin. Biddy was a girl, an Irish girl, and
such are quick to jump to conclusions. The boys watched her face
now with devouring interest. Bruin rose slowly to his feet, pattered
solemnly across the polished floor, and laid his big head on her lap.
Biddy's shapely hand touched his forehead, but her thoughts were
far away. After a time she said quickly:
"There is but one thing to be done: we must find Norah Malone
without a minute's loss of time."
"Norah!" exclaimed both the boys.
"You must have taken leave of your senses, Bridget!" exclaimed Pat.
"What has Norah to do with Janet May and the island?"
"I can't tell you," said Bridget. "I have just a fear in my heart, and
Norah may set it at rest. We must find her. We must go to her at
once, this very night."
"Where is she?" asked Pat. "I haven't seen her for days past."
"She may be up on the mountain with Donovan. You know they are
to be married in a couple of days, and Donovan is to be moved
down on a litter to the Castle. Or she may be sleeping at the
Hogans' at the lodge. We will go to the Hogans' first, and if they can
tell nothing about her we must go up to the mountains. There is
nothing whatever else to be done."
"It seems such a waste of time," grumbled Pat. "It is Janet we want
to find."
"And I tell you it is through Norah we'll find her," answered Bridget,
stamping her foot at him. "Come along, boys, both of you, and
Bruin, you come, too. We have a night's work before us, and we
haven't a minute to lose."
"It is the night when the moon is at the full," said Gerry, "and—and
the Witch may come to us, and—I couldn't bear to look at her."
"Well, go to bed, you little coward!" said Pat, flashing round at him,
and aiming a cuff at his head.
Gerry darted behind Bridget for protection.
"Come, boys, don't quarrel," she said. "Gerry, you know you are not
a real coward. Come along this minute and help us."
She was unbarring the bolts which secured the great front door as
she spoke. The next moment the three young folks were standing on
the terrace.
"The dogs will raise an alarm," said Bridget; "that's the worst of
them. If so, my father will get up, and everything will be known.
Stay, though, I'll send Bruin round to speak to them. Come here,
darling, I want you."
The great dog came up to her.
She knelt on the gravel, with the moon shining all over her, and
looked into his eyes.
"Go round to the dogs, Bruin," she said, "and tell them to be quiet,
and then come back to me. Go quickly."
The deerhound licked his mistress's hand, and then trotted in sober,
solemn fashion round by the shrubbery and disappeared.
The girl and the boys waited anxiously. Not a dog bayed, not a
sound of any sort was audible. Bruin trod on the velvety turf as he
returned. He looked up at Bridget, who bent down and kissed him
between the eyes.
"Good King!" she said, and then she and the boys started off as fast
as they could to the Hogans' cottage, where Norah might possibly be
sleeping.
No sign of her there; no tidings of her, either. Hogan got up and put
out a white face of amazement from one of the tiny windows of the
cottage when Bridget made her demand. If he knew anything of
Norah's whereabouts, neither face nor manner betrayed him.
"It's no good, boys," said Bridget, "she is not there; or if she is,
Hogan has got the word not to tell. We might stand and talk to him
forever before he'd let even a wink of an eye betray him. There is
nothing whatever for it but for us to go to the cottage on the
mountains."
Gerry was quite silent now. He took care to keep Bridget between
himself and Pat, and no one particularly noticed when he started at
his own shadow, and when he looked guiltily behind.
Even to ride on horseback to Donovan's cabin, in the midst of the
lonely mountains, took a long time; but to walk on foot in the
uncertain moonlight was truly a weary undertaking.
It was between three and four in the morning when the children,
exhausted and almost spent, stumbled up against the little cabin, to
find the door locked and the house deserted.
Gerry burst out crying, and even Bridget owned that she had come
to the end of her resources.
"Don't talk to me, either of you," she said; "I am more persuaded
than ever that Norah and Donovan are at the bottom of this. There
is nothing for it now but to go home."
"How dare we?" said Pat. "Uncle Dennis will almost kill Gerry and me
if he knows of this."
"We must go home, boys; we must face the thing. We had better
step out now as fast as we can, or the servants will be up."
"I can't tell Uncle Dennis of this," said Pat; "I simply can't."
"Don't say whether you can or cannot now," said Bridget; "let us go
back as quickly as possible."
 CHAPTER XXVII.
"SPEAK OUT!"

Squire O'Hara was the first of the family to put in an appearance the
next morning at the breakfast table. He looked round him somewhat
impatiently. He did not count Miss Macnamara, nor old Captain
Shand, nor one or two more of the visitors, as anybody. When they
came in he simply nodded to them, but his impatient eyes looked
eagerly at the vacant places which his own family ought to occupy.
What was the matter with the world?
Where was his sister-in-law Kathleen? She was up too early as a rule
—fidgeting, fussing, talking, and clattering. Where were those imps,
Pat and Gerry? Where were the two nice little English girls?—and,
above all, where was his Colleen, his darling, the apple of his eye?
"Shall I pour out your tea for you, squire?" asked Miss Macnamara in
a timid voice.
"No, I thank you," he replied; "I'll wait for my family. Help yourself;
help yourself, I beg. Captain Shand, pray tackle the beef; Mr. Jones,
try that kippered salmon. Nobody need wait breakfast who doesn't
wish to; but I'm not hungry. I'll just step out on the terrace for a
minute or two until some of my family choose to put in an
appearance."
The squire opened the window as he spoke, and, stepping over the
sill, was just about to call to the dogs to accompany him in his walk
when a little, shabby, gray-haired woman started up almost at his
feet, and raised two blazing black eyes to his face.
"Is that you, Norah?" said the squire. "And may I ask what you are
doing here crouching down among the rose-bushes?"
"Nothing, yer honor; sure as I live I'm doing nothing!" said Norah. "I
was only waiting to catch a sight of Miss Biddy, bless her."
"You surely did not lie in ambush in this absurd fashion to see Miss
Bridget. She does not want people skulking after her like that.
There, my good woman, don't look at me as if I were going to eat
you. Go round to the kitchen and have some breakfast, and you
shall see Miss Biddy afterward."
The squire heard fresh sounds of arrival in the breakfast room at this
moment. In consequence, his voice grew more cordial.
He passed in again through the open window, and Norah quickly
disappeared round by the shrubbery.
"Is that you, Biddy?" he said. "How are you, my love? Oh! and
Kathleen, you have put in an appearance at last; and here the boys,
and Miss Sophy. Come, that's right, that's right. Now let us sit down
and enjoy ourselves. I have been out since six o'clock, and I'm quite
disposed to do justice to my tea and fresh eggs. Here, Biddy, you
shall pour me out a cup with your own fair hands, alanna."
The squire drew up to the table, making a considerable amount of
bluster and noise. Bruin crouched in his usual place by Bridget's
side; Sophy sat near Lady Kathleen; the boys began hungrily to
attack a huge bowl of porridge each, and the meal proceeded.
"You are all very silent," said the squire. "Have none of you anything
to say for yourselves? Not a laugh do I hear—not a whisper. Half an
hour late for breakfast, and everyone coming in as mum as if we
were all a house of the dead! Come, Biddy, come, haven't you a joke
to crack with anyone?"
"Oh, squire," said Lady Kathleen, from the other end of the long
board, "we just want you to drink off your tea first. Oh, oh, oh!
Sophy, poor child, poor child, restrain yourself. There, she can't, the
creature, she can't. Put your arms round my neck, pet, and cry here
then; poor little dear, poor little dear!"
"What in the name of fortune does this mean?" exclaimed Dennis
O'Hara. "Biddy, can you explain it? Why, your face is like a sheet,
child. What can be wrong?"
"I will tell you, Dennis," said Lady Kathleen. "Poor little Janet is lost.
If you hadn't been so taken up with all the singing and the dancing
last night you'd have missed her from our family circle, for she
wasn't there then, and she isn't here now; and what's more, she
hasn't been in her bed the whole of the blessed night, and there's
Sophy fit to break her heart, and no wonder, poor thing, no wonder,
for if there was a nice devoted little sister it was Janet. I am fearing
that the poor child has fallen from a precipice, or gone too far into
one of the bogs. I always told you, squire, that you didn't half drain
those bogs. Now, what is it? Oh, mercy me, what awful thing are
you going to say?"
"I'm going to request you to hold your tongue," said the squire. "We
none of us can hear ourselves speak with you, Kathleen. And a fine,
queer tale you have to tell! Miss Janet May hasn't been in the house
all night! Is that true, Miss Sophy?"
"She wasn't in her room last night," said Sophy, a fresh sob breaking
her voice.
"But this must be looked into at once," continued the squire. "One of
my visitors has been absent from my roof all night, and I am only
told of it now—now—and it past eight o'clock in the morning! This is
a scandalous shame! Why, there isn't a man or boy in the place who
shouldn't have been searching round for the bit of a colleen four
hours past. But, of course, I'm always kept in the dark. Although I
am Squire O'Hara of Castle Mahun, I'm just nobody, I suppose?
Now, what is it, Bridget—what are you going to say? I won't take
interference from anyone when I am roused like this."
The squire was in one of his rare, but terrible passions: his lips
trembled, his eyes blazed, his great hand shook.
"I have got something to tell you," began Bridget.
"Oh, you have, have you? You can throw light on this scandal then?
Speak out, speak out this minute."
"Will you come with me into your study? I'd rather tell you alone."
"I'll do nothing of the kind. You speak out here. It's a nice state of
things when the master of the house is kept in the dark! That girl
should have been searched for last night when she didn't come in.
And of course she would have been searched for if I had been told
of it; but the rest of you must hugger-mugger together and keep me
in the dark. I call this state of things disgraceful. Now what is it you
have got to say, Bridget? Are you a coward too, afraid to tell your
own father? A nice state of things the world is coming to! Speak! are
you afraid of me?"
"I am a coward, and I am afraid of you," said Bridget.
Her words were so absolutely unexpected that every single
individual seated round the breakfast table started back with an
astonished exclamation.
Bridget's own face was white as death. She stepped a little away
from the table; Bruin got up and stood by her side. She was
unconscious of the fact that her hand rested on his great head.
"Speak up," thundered the squire, "I'll have no more shuffling. You
look as if you were ashamed of something. I see it in your eye. You
are my only child—the last of the race, and you are ashamed! Good
God, that I should live to see this day. But come, no more shuffling—
out with the truth!"
"I know something about Janet, and so also do Pat and Gerry,"
continued Bridget. "I'd rather tell you by yourself, father; I wish
you'd let me."
"No, that I won't; if you have done anything wrong you have got to
confess it. A pretty pass we have come to when Bridget O'Hara has
to confess her sins! But, never mind, though you were twenty times
my child, you'll have to stand here and tell the truth before
everyone. Now speak up, speak up this minute—Kathleen! if you
don't stop blubbering you'll have to leave the room."
Dennis O'Hara's face was terrible.
He and Bridget were the only ones standing; all the rest remained
glued to their chairs, without speaking or moving.
"Now go on," he said, "we are all waiting to hear this fine
confession; did you spirit Janet May away?"
"No, I didn't. You make me cease to fear you, father, when you
speak in that tone," said Bridget. "I have behaved badly, I—I
thought it would break my heart to tell you; but when you look at
me like that——"
"Like what? Go on, Biddy, or you'll drive me mad."
"Well, I know what has happened to Janet. She went over to the
Witch's Island last night. She said there was no witch. Nothing would
make her believe in a witch, and she would go; it was her own
desire."
"And you took her there, I suppose?"
"No, I didn't; I had nothing to do with it."
"It was I who did that part, uncle," said Pat, suddenly springing to
his feet. "I won't let Biddy be the only one scolded; I was in an awful
funk when I found what had happened, but I can't stand here and
hear a girl spoken to like this; and Biddy isn't a bit nor a morsel to
blame. It's just Biddy all out to try and shield other people; but it
was my fault, mine and Gerry's. What is it, uncle? what is it you are
saying to me?"
"Come over here this minute," said the squire. "Shake hands with
me; you are a fine lad, you are a very fine lad. Oh, thank Heaven! I
thought the colleen had done something wrong. It isn't a bit of
matter about anybody else. Speak out, Pat, speak out; and, oh!
alanna, alanna, forgive me, forgive me. I thought bad of you, my
jewel, my sweet! Come into my arms, my colleen asthore. What
matter who is black, when you are white as a lily?"
Dennis O'Hara's burst of passion was over as quickly as it had
arisen; he went up to Bridget and folded his great arms round her
slight young figure.
"But I am not white," she said, bursting into sudden uncontrollable
weeping; "oh, I am not white, and you'll never love me any more,
and my heart will break. I can't tell you now, before everybody. I
just can't, I can't. Pat knows all about Janet. Pat can tell that story,
and you are not going to be too angry with him; but I must go away,
for I can't speak of the other thing. There, father, don't kiss me, I
cannot stand it."
She wrenched herself out of his arms and flew from the room.
It was a glorious summer's day; the sun was blazing down from the
sky with a fierce heat. Bridget felt half blinded with misery and
confusion of mind. She put up her hand to her head and glanced up
at the sky.
"I must tell my father everything when I see him next," she said to
herself. "Oh, what shall I do, what shall I do?"
Footsteps sounded behind her. She felt impatient of anyone seeing
her in her grief and distraction, and, turning to hide herself in the
shrubbery, found that she was face to face with Norah.
"I seen you, me darling," said Norah; "I seen you when you ran out
of the breakfast room all distraught like."
"You saw me? then you were listening, Norah," said Bridget, her
tears drying rapidly in her sudden anger.
"And why not, alanna? and why shouldn't I listen when it was for the
good of my own nursling? The squire says, 'Go and have some
breakfast, Norah'; but what's breakfast to me when the light of my
eyes, the child I helped to rear, is suffering. I listened, Miss Biddy,
and when you run out of the room I followed you. You come with
me, alanna. You trust poor Norah. Norah Malony and Pat Donovan
'ud spill their heart's blood for you, missie; you trust us both!"
"I thought as much," said Bridget. "Come back here into the shade
of the shrubbery, Norah; I guessed last night that you were at the
bottom of this. Don't you know that you have behaved disgracefully?
Do you think my father will help you to marry Pat after such conduct
as this? No, don't go down on your knees; I am not inclined to
intercede for you at present. I am not inclined to take your part. You
must go this instant to the place where you have hidden Janet May.
There is not a moment to lose; go and bring her back at once!"
Norah began to cry feebly.
"You are hard on me," she sobbed, "and I done it for you—Pat and
me, we done it for you. We meant no harm either. The young
Englisher girl have come to no grief—leastways, nothing but a bit of
a fright, and she'll do what we wants if you don't spoil everything,
Miss Bridget."
"I don't understand you, Norah; I don't feel even inclined to listen to
you. You must go this minute and release poor Janet."
 CHAPTER XXVIII.
WHAT THE O'HARAS SAID TO ONE ANOTHER.

The race of human beings who can neither read nor write are fast
vanishing from the face of the civilized earth. They used, however, to
abound in great numbers in old Ireland, and, strange as it may
seem, these so-called uneducated people have proved themselves to
be some of the shrewdest in the world.
For, never reading the books of men, they are always perusing the
greater book of nature. Unacquainted with the art of writing, they
trust absolutely to their memories. The observation, therefore, of the
Irish peasant can scarcely be credited by those who have never
come across him.
Norah had made up her mind that Janet should not be released from
the hiding-place to which she and Pat had spirited her until she
made full confession of her own part in making Bridget unhappy. It
is true Norah had never heard the tale, but she seemed to know as
much about it as if she had been in everybody's confidence, and had
even joined the Fancy Fair Committee, and sat in Mrs. Freeman's
schoolroom when Bridget, under Janet's directions, cribbed her
lessons.
If Bridget herself, however, wished Janet to be set free, there was no
help for it.
"You wait here, Miss Biddy," she said; "you needn't go for Miss Janet
May. I'll bring her to you in an hour at the farthest."
"Very well, Norah," said Bridget, "I'll wait for you here."
She sat down as she spoke, under the shelter of a large birch tree,
and, leaning her head against its silver stem, fell into a heavy sleep.
She dreamt in her sleep, and these dreams were so disquieting that
she could not help crying out and moaning heavily. She opened her
eyes at last to see her old father standing by her.
For a moment she could not remember where she was, nor what
had happened. The smile which always filled her eyes when she
looked at her dearly loved father came into them now; a gay word
banished the sorrowful lines from round her lips, and, with a little
laugh, she rose to her feet.
"How ridiculous of me to have gone to sleep in the wood," she
exclaimed.
Then memory came back. She flushed first, and then turned deadly
pale.
"You are in trouble, alanna," said Squire O'Hara. "I know that by the
look you wore in your sleep; I never saw my colleen wear a face so
full of sorrow before. There's something on your mind, acushla, and
you are afraid to tell your father. Maybe I frightened you a bit in the
parlor just now; if so, my heart's core, you must forgive me. I was
taken aback and put out, and we O'Haras are celebrated for our
hasty tempers. I am not angry now, however: my anger has passed
like a morning cloud. You tell me all that is vexing you, Biddy. Put
your arms round me, and whisper your trouble in my ears, my own
colleen."
"And why should a beautiful young lady like that have any throuble,"
exclaimed another voice.
The squire and Bridget both started and turned round. Janet May
and Norah were coming up the little path, and even now stood by
their sides.
"Here's the young Englisher lady," said Norah. "She's none the worse
for having spent one night with the Irish folk, and there's no
throuble, now that she has come back; is there, Miss Biddy?"
For one instant Bridget was silent.
Janet came up to her and spoke in a gentle, cheerful tone. "I am so
glad to be back with you, dear," she said. "I dare say you and the
squire were uneasy about me. Well, I had an adventure, and am
none the worse. I'll tell you all about it presently. Norah has
something, also, to say for herself; but she, too, will speak presently.
Now I have one request to make of the squire."
"What is that, my dear?" asked Dennis O'Hara.
"It is that no one shall be punished on my account," said Janet, in
her sweet, low tones. "There was just a little bit of a practical joke
played on me. You Irish are celebrated for practical jokes, are you
not? I came to no harm, and if I don't wish anyone to be punished, I
suppose my wishes are worth considering, as I was the only one
who suffered."
"You are by no means the only one who suffered, Miss May," said
the squire. "Look at Biddy, there. Why is her face so pale, and why
are her eyes so heavy? And as to practical jokes, I never heard that
it was the way of the Irish gentry to practice them upon their
visitors. My dear young lady, I appreciate your kind and generous
spirit. It does my old heart good to see you here safe and
unharmed, but you must allow me to deal with this matter in my
own way. I am not thinking of it at present, however. I want to have
a word with my daughter Biddy. Will you go into the house, Miss
May? Biddy and I will follow you presently."
"No, Janet, stay here," said Bridget suddenly.
She threw up her head with something of the free action of a young
race horse, tossed her curly hair back from her broad brow, and
looked first at Janet and then at the squire.
There was something in the expression of her eyes which caused
Janet, as she afterward expressed it, "to shake in her shoes."
"Norah," continued Bridget, "you must stay here too. Now, father, I
will tell you something. I will tell you why your Biddy can never,
never again be the old Bridget you used to know and to love."
"Oh, don't," interrupted Janet. "See how hysterical you are, Bridget.
Don't you think, squire——"
"Hush!" thundered the squire. "Let the colleen speak."
"Father," continued Bridget, "I am a very unhappy girl. I have
behaved badly. I have been wicked; I have been dishonorable and—
and deceitful."
"No, no, I don't believe that," said the squire. "Whatever you are,
you are not deceitful." Once again his face turned white, and an
angry light leaped out of his eyes.
"It is true," continued Bridget, "and—and she tempted me—she,
Janet May. I never met anyone like her before. She tempted me; I
don't know with what motive. It isn't right to tell tales of a visitor;
but I—I can't bear things any longer, and I have got so confused in
my mind that I don't know what is right and what is wrong. I don't
wish to excuse myself, but I do not think I'd have done the dreadful
things but for her. I wouldn't have done them, because they never
would have occurred to me. Perhaps that is because I am not clever
enough. I don't want to excuse myself, but she tempted me to do
wrong, and I did wrong, frightfully wrong, and I have been, oh, so
miserable! And Norah here—poor Norah—she guessed at my
trouble, and she thought she'd punish Janet. That's why Janet was
away last night. It was very wrong of Norah, too, but she did it out
of love to me. Oh, father, how miserable I am! Why did you send me
to that English school? I can never, never, never again be your old
Biddy; never again, father, never as long as I live."
Here poor Bridget burst into such convulsive weeping that her words
became inaudible.
Suddenly she felt a pair of arms round her neck, and, looking up,
her lips touched her father's cheek.
"Let me go on," she said; "let me get it over."
"Not until you are better, colleen. There is not the least hurry. Come
down and sit with me in the bower near the Holy Well. We shall
have it all to ourselves."
"But the others," said Bridget—"Janet and Norah?"
"I sent them away. Why should they hear what one O'Hara has to
say to the other?"
 CHAPTER XXIX.
THE CHILD OF HIS HEART.

Janet ran quickly toward the house. On her way she met one of the
servants, a man of the name of Doolan; she stopped to say a few
words to him eagerly, then, running on, found herself in the great
hall, where Lady Kathleen, Pat, Gerald, and Sophy were all
assembled.
Lady Kathleen uttered a scream when she saw her.
"Oh, how glad I am——" she began.
Janet interrupted her hastily.
"Dear Lady Kathleen," she said, "I will speak to you presently. I will
tell you all my adventures presently; but please, please let me go up
to my room now with Sophy; I want to say a word to Sophy. Please
let me pass."
There was an expression about Janet's face which caused Lady
Kathleen to fall back, which arrested a torrent of words on the lips of
each of the boys, and which made poor, frightened Sophy follow her
sister out of the room without a word.
"Come upstairs with me, and be as quick as ever you can," said
Janet.
She took her sister's hand as she spoke, rushed up the stairs with
her, and entered the large room which the girls shared together.
"Now, Sophy," said Janet, "how much money have you got? Don't
attempt to prevaricate. I know you received a letter yesterday from
Aunt Jane, and she—she sent you a five-pound note; I know it—
don't attempt to deny it."
"I don't want to deny it," said Sophy. "You—you frighten me, Janet;
we have all been so miserable about you. I could not eat any
breakfast; I was crying as if my heart would break, and now you
come back looking like I don't know what, and you speak in such a
dreadful way."
"Never mind how I speak," said Janet; "pack your things; be quick
about it, for we must be out of this place in ten minutes."
"What do you mean?"
"I'll tell you presently. Pack, pack, pack! Fling your things into your
trunk, no matter how—anything to get away. If you are not packed,
with your hat and gloves on, in ten minutes, you shall come away
without your finery, that is all."
"But how are we to get away?" said Sophy. "We can't walk to the
station; it is twenty miles off."
"I know that, but I have arranged everything. Mike Doolan will have
the jaunting car at the top of the back avenue in fifteen minutes
from now. I only want to pack and lock our boxes; they must follow
us by and by. Now, don't waste another moment talking."
Janet's words were so strong, her gestures so imperious, that Sophy
found herself forced to do exactly what she was told. The ribbons,
laces, trinkets, which she and Janet had amassed out of poor
Bridget's stores during their stay at Castle Mahun were tossed
anyhow into their trunks; the trunks were locked and directed, and
the two girls had left the house without saying a word to anyone
long before Squire O'Hara and Bridget returned to it.
Janet was worthless through and through; Sophy was very little
better. The curtain drops over them here as far as this story is
concerned.
What more is there to tell?
How can I speak of those events which immediately followed the
departure of Janet May and her sister?—the wonder and
consternation of Lady Kathleen Peterham; the astonishment and
curiosity of the retainers; the secret triumph of Norah Maloney and
Pat Donovan; the intense amazement of the boys!
Amazement had its day, curiosity its hour, and then the memory of
the English girls faded, and the waters of oblivion, to a great extent,
closed over them. Lady Kathleen sent their trunks to the address
which Janet had put upon them. They were addressed to a Miss
Jane Perkins, and Lady Kathleen concluded that she was the Aunt
Jane of whom Janet stood in such wholesome dread.
The squire made an important discovery on that unhappy day. It was
this: O'Hara of Castle Mahun could brook no dishonor in the person
of his nephew, or sister, or cousin; but the child of his heart could be
forgiven even dishonor.
"I will myself write to Mrs. Freeman," he said, after he and Bridget
had concluded their long conference. "O Biddy, child! why did you
not tell me before; could anything, anything turn my heart from thy
heart? But listen, acushla macree, your Aunt Kathleen and Pat and
Gerald must never know of this."
Of Bridget's future history, of her many subsequent adventures, both
at school and at home—are they not written in the book of the
future?
