Av love 'neath th' skies av ould Ireland, dear— "I had anticipated his doing something like this and had provided against it. Old man Scroggie, the original owner of this land, had left a will, bequeathing all he owned to a young man of this district, Stanhope by name.

If Maddoc was surprised, he did not show it. "You struck oil, I see, Jacobs." "I was determined to try. I could see no other way of frightening and disgusting him.".
