The whole room went mad about you. They would talk of no one else. Do not let them turn your head."

"Yes, you, and every other man," says Mona, smiling, and raising her loving eyes to her husband. "Indeed she will not;" says Mona indignantly. "Irish peasants very seldom do that. She will, I am sure, be faithful forever to the memory of the man she loved." "Ah!" says Mona, springing to her feet, and turning to the door, as though to summon aid; but he stops her by a gesture. "Shall we set out now?" says Mona; and she calls "Mickey, Mickey," at the top of her strong young lungs..
