281 fol accident happened, which drove the last of them away. In a terrible storm, one winter afternoon, the part of the castle containing the kitchen was blown down, and tumbled over the precipice into the sea, with the family stores of meat and potatoes, and Biddy, the cook, who was preparing dinner, and Teddy, the little scullion, who was turning the spit. The Mac Donnels, for all their pride, were shocked and afflicted by this misfortune, — for Biddy was an excellent cook, and Teddy, her so...n, though careless and lazy, and given to little thefts and large stories, had his good points, as what Irish boy has not So they, the Mac Donnels, sought out some other home, — safer and more com- fortable, if not quite so grand in its isolated, ancient gentility, — and it may be, took the Banshee with them for their comfort. Trouble, I believe, always goes with people in this world, wherever they move to, — in some form or other, it travels with them, and settles down with them, — as sorrow, ill-luck, disease, disgrace, dis- content, fear, or remorse, — and if we may credit Irish traditions, the old nobility and gentry had to endure howling Banshees in addition.
