In 'Romance and Father Gillespie', Seamus discovers a priest's passion, but promises to keep his secret; and in 'Daisy in the Country' being an innocent about country matters is all to the good from the point of view of her boyfriend, Michael!Seamus is as crafty as they come, is not averse to 'taking the law into his own hands', can keep a secret for many years and is a willing nemesis to any who wish harm to the innocent.
