OWNEY THE PEDDLER.
A Story of Country Life.


A gray colt came over the road
drawing a cart behind him, with q
man and woman sitting on the cross
board of it. The sun was white upon
the road. Rushy pastures, spesk led
over with the snow balls of the bog
cotton, were on each side. Above
were mounds and hilllocks covered
with screens of pine and larch.
There was moss as green as emeralds
under the larches, and threads OF
streams dwindled through it, and
brown rabbits leaped over it. Between
it and the lower boughs black-birds
flew with whirr of wings and chat
ter of golden tongues.
"We're up against the house of the
smith," said the girl in the cart. She
put into the mans hands the reins she
had been holding. She cracked the
colt with a sharp cutting stick. He
broke into a great gallop. The ker-
chief blew from the girls head. The
yellow of her hair shamed the sun.
The whiteness of the lily was on her
cheek. The red of the rose was the
color of her mouth.
The forge was by the side of the
lane. near the corner where the gap
between the hiliocks opened out upon
the bog. High mountains were be-
yond one end of the gap. The bog
was outside the other.
"Get down Shamus ~ said the girl
to the man who was with her in the
cart. "Tell the smith We want shoe
to the horse. Say that the Dublin road
is hard road for horse to cover. I'll
put in a word then. Watch him and
he putin on the shoe. Bid him be
quick, and then say there's no hurry
upon ye."
They stopped at the smithy, that
was like a witch's cavern with the
murk dark that was in it. The broad,
wheel-shaped stone was set in the
ground by the door. Hard at hand
was the pond for cooling the red-hot
iron. The galloping horse drew up OF
sudden. The smith and his son
came out of the dark cavern. The
smith looked at the colt. The son
looked at the girl. =,
"More power 10 We, CORD man - SAID
the smith to the driver.
We want shoe on the BEAST" said
Shamus, getting down out of the cart.
The girl got down after him. He let
her do it without help. The smiths
son said within himself, that the stran-
ger must be either the girls brother or
her husband. He felt his heart tight
IN when he thought of husband.
He had taken two steps forward to
help the girl alight. He took them
backward and remained leani ng
against the door post under the Intel.
The smith led the colt from between
the shafts.
"Tis long road to cover, that road
to Dublin" said Shamus, pointing
down the road. His hand trembled as
he held it out.
He ground his teeth in his head.
"Twould be long road if one, was
going it," said the girl. Owney joyce,
the son of the smith, fixed his eyes up
on the girl.
The color Of the rose went from her
lips to her cheek. She turned her
head away.
The colt was walked into tile forge.
Ownev followed. He went to the fur
mace bellows. He blew the furnace
into fire and molten gold. The smith
Redeemed the iron. He hammered it
into shape. He was careful and slow
at his work.
"You'd be good messenger to send
for Death ~ said Shamus, beating his
hand against the door post.
The girl sat on the bank by the road
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1901-10-02

outside. There were primroses on the
bank, and humming bees went about
it, and red ladybirds. The girl was
looking at them. and the tears began
to run down her cheeks. Owney
Joyce wondered why the sight of the
primroses and the bees and the pretty
iadybirds should make the girl cry.
THE oak that takes longest to grow
takes longest to fall" said the smith
But if you're in hurry, plI do my
best TO meet ye."
"There's no hurry upon me-" said
Shamus, turning toward the girl sit
ting on the sunny bank.
Except to 60 to our grandfather
funeral said the girl.
The colt was shod and brought back
to the cart and harnessed under it.
"Y'ought let me put clamp of iron
there upon the shaft" said the smith
"That's dangerous crack in it."
"Twas broken before we set out,
said the girl. "An' havin' lasted sc
far, it will likely last all the way. We
can't wait"
The man got up into the cart. As
the girl did the same thing, Owney
stepped out and assisted her
"You're no more nor twelvemonths
married." he said to the girl.
"Oh, no." answered the girl. "l'm
not married at ALL"
Such a look came into the eyes o.
the young man that it was as if stars
were shining in them.
"You'll be passin' this way goin
home ?n he said. The girl was sitting
on the cross board, She knitted heI
brows at'the young man. He stood
by the wheel of the cart. He had put
his hand Oh her arm.
1--WE may 60 by another road" she
said. She drew herself away. There
was straw Uttered over the floor of the
cart. AS the girl moved away, hel
skirts swept with them some of the
straw. Owney saw lying beneath it 9
heavy mallet. He looked at the girl
Their eyes met. The face of the girl
went as gray as the face of dead
woman.
"God speed ye?" said the smith
from the doorway of the shed. The
long sharp stick in the girls hand
slasbed down upon the back of the
horse. He bounded forward with
leap that nearly upset the cart. Away
they went down the road, and out oi
sight around the corner. The March
wind itself might scarcely overtake
them.
Faith, the pooka isn't in it with
that colt !" said the smith to his son.
The father put his pipe in his mouth
and walked into the thatched house
beside the forge. His wife was in the
kitchen spinning flax.
"At long last our Owney has set bis
eyes upon a girl to his fancy" said
the smith with laugh.
His wife stopped spinning. She let
her hands fall down by her sides.
"Throth, an I didn't believe there
was mother in the world with col
leen that would please him." said she:
About an hour after that two of the
Kings officers came riding down the
road from the mountains. They drew
rein at the forge. They called out the
smith.
Ibid ye happen to see cart 60 by
this way they demanded.
Owney Joyce walked out of the dark
of the shed. He stood by his fathers
side and listened.
"That did," said the smith. "And
shod a mettlesome colt under that
same cart"
The wind, blowing from far away,
brought with it faint sounds.
"Whistht p' cried Owney, putting up
his hand "What's that ?"
The officers and the smith turned

every cabin he first came to on each
separate road he asked the folks if
they had seen yellow haired woman
pass that way in company with a
white-faced man. If they said yes, be
went that road until he could 60 no
further. Then he came back with a
sadder countenance than he had be-
fore.
He went to and fro over Ireland,
seeking that which he could not find.
And the sloe-black hair upon his head
began to whiten, a1d the light OF
youth went out in his blue eyes. At
last he almost forgot what he was
searching for. The dullness of age
crept upon him. He and bis little pa
tient beast grew gray together:
One day they came into village on
the shore. And the sea was spread
out beside them. Green islands rose
out of it and foam flashed from its
breaking pillows. It was the eve of
the feast of Patrick's, and the peddler
had Patrick crosses to sell to their
mothers for their children. A little
child came over the sandy street to
him, and she said.
"There is woman here who wants
to buy cross for me-"
He drew the old gray ass over the
way. and it was billy, and he knew 1t
was hard upon the creature. He felt
heartsick of wandering.
"I'll 60 home to the west" he said TO
himself, as he crossed the road. ut
is good for q man to die among his
own" He stopped before doorway,
where a woman was standing. She
was worn woman, not young. Fad
ed yellow hair was lying upon her
her forehead.
"God save you, good man :" she
said to Owney. "Where did | see
your face before ?"
II think it was in Connaught
smithy," said Owney Joyce. And his
weakness and age went from him IN
moment, for the woman he had spent
his life looking for was before him.
aye stopped to get a shoe on colt
that didn't want it," said Owney.
"An' your cart was hanging on Its
shafts by 2 few splinters. An
We mad great mallet to smash
through them when the right minute
came. which was at the edge of quak-
ing morass. An We sent the colt rae
ing homeward with tn shafts at his
heels, while you stole away in safety
with mau escapin' the galloWs. But
nv woman, only I cut out the dints
left by your mallet in those same
shafts before the kings off GERS put an
eve on them, it might have gone hard
er with ye." The woman forgot the
child and its -Patrick's cross. She
stood silent, looking at Owney Joyce.
"Where is your brother noW"' ask
ed Owney. :,
The child was patting the ass. feed
ing it with tufts Of grass which she
gathered from a garden by the path.
The woman led Owney away. She
brought him to a graveyard of the
street. An old windworn chapel
stood in the midst. There was shelf.
cred corner, sweet violets. A mound
rose out of the violets.
My brother an his wife are lyln,,
here,n said the faded woman. IAN
in my cabin out in the street I've rear
ed his children for him."
"Then I think IFS time that ye
should rear children of your own,
said the peddler. And by the time
Patrlck's eve next came round, the
faded woman was sitting by her hus-
bands hearth IN a thatched house be-
side her Connaught and her own
child was sleeping upon her bosom.
