"She doesn't understand," puts in Violet, quickly. "Mona, are you going to see everybody that may choose to call upon you, good, bad, and indifferent, from this till you die?" "I am afraid you went to almost the worst part of Ireland," says Mona, shaking her head. "New Pallas, and all round Limerick, is so dreadfully disloyal." "I am far from it, I regret to say; but time cures all things, and I trust to that and careful observation to reform me.".

And, as I am not of much account at home, 'my awful dad' sent me over to Ireland to see why the steward didn't get in the rents.
