Where He
Was
On 81. Patrick's Day In the
Morning
BY NORA B. SHEA

1t was the evening before st. Pat
ricll's day, 1765, in Ireland. The moon
was az the full and shone with unusu-
al brightness. Dennis 0'Donohue,
young man OF twenty two, mounted on
a black mare, was trotting on road
between Killarney and Tralee on his
way to ball at the latter place. sud
denly catching sight of a light some
distance from the road, he drew rein
and thrust his hand in under his waist
coat to pull his watch from his toD.
1t was not there, and he remempereu
that he had left 1t at home.
Now. what he wished his watch LOT
was to note the time that he might de'
eide whether to attempt something
that popped into his head at seeing the
light referred to. In the house where
it shone lived Eileen Mavourneen' a
young girl whom Dennis would nave
gladly wooed had he been permitted 10
do SO. Dennis was inclined TO be
trifle wild. and Eileen was warned py
her parents to have nothing to do win
him.
Nevertheless the young man was es-
pecially attractive to girls. lie was
tall and 1.-the. and mass OF light curiS
fell down over his shoulders. Tenuer

as having been taken from him Dy 'ne

that Dennis O'Donohue, sympatni"ins
with the woman, had robbed the ianu-
lord and given the money 10 ms .en-
ant TO save her from eviction. Ina.
the robbery had taken place for that

time A man on horseback drew near,
and when he came up Dennis said in
mild voice:
81 beg your pardon for stopping you,
sir, but would you tell me what o'clock
it isr
Dennis back was to the moon, while
the horseman faced it, and Dennis rec
ognized The O'Grady. The O'Grady
hesitated. The voice sounded like that
of O'Donohue, by whom he believed
he had been robbed. Dennis horse was
restless and, turning, exposed Dennis
face to the moon. The O'Grady thrust
his hand under his coat ms IL to take
out his watch, but instead drew pis-
toll and, pointing it at Dennis head, said
"It is time for you to move on, Den

YOU TO go to one of the American colo
nies, for if you ever appear In Killar'
ney again I'll bring you up for high
way robbery. Twice is once too often
for YOU to rob the same person"
With this, still covering Dennis with
his pistol. he urged on his horse, leav-
ing Dennis standing in the road mute
with astonishment. Dennis knew at
once that this evidence against him,
taken with the suspicion Of another
robbery, would convict him of being a
highwayman, and that meant either a
long Imprisonment or death. lie
thought of taking The O'Grady's al
vice and, riding over to Cork. take ship
