Ridence
Laughter; specifically the sound of laughter. The i is long and should be pronounced reed-ence or ride-ence to avoid confusion with the word "riddance".
From the Latin ridere - to laugh, the word is related to deride and derision.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
