Besides this, he was supposed to be dead, having received a slight wound in the skirmish at Ballingarry.

He obstinately refused to adopt the disguise, but consented to that of a servant boy.

When the matter was finally arranged, it was proposed to us to sleep at Templenoe, on the north side of Kenmare Bay, where he was to be furnished with suitable clothes.

Since the commencement, I did not feel the same sense of desolation as when these arrangements were completed, and an hour was appointed for his departure next morning.

It was on the evening of the 23rd of September.
