During a rest at the harvest dance, Marty is requested to tell of the days when he was young. The good-natured Irishman consents and tells the following story: "In those days we got our larnin' from th' hedge school and whin I grew up, toimes bein' worse, like many another spalpeen I tuk to courtin'. Just about thin Lord Kilhannack, the divil take 'im, took to evictin' his penniless tenants by the way of a little divarsion. Con Hanley made a gallant run wid the news to Father Falvey. His Riv'rince, attimtin' to protict the Morans, was put under arresht for his trouble. Bein' a knowin' lad an' a mimber of the White Boys, I blew the horn as a signal to call the boys together, an' there in the glen we took on the rescue av th' holy man. T'way a grand place for the wurk, but it cost us dear. Wid the Red Coats scourin' th' countryside, His Riv'rince lived for weeks on the food secretly passed him, in the cave where he was hidden. Rewards were posted ivrywhere. A dhirty agent named Michael Dee discovered the hiding place of His Riv'rince an' sold him to th' crown, but Peggy overheard a drunken soldier's boast, and very toimly too, brought the news, an' disguised, the good priest shipped to sea. He kissed the shore of bis native isle and sailed him away to Ameriky. An' tho Frough dear served sivin long years, she's here herself to tell it."
