If a dog came sailing out of a thicket, ki-yi-ing agitatedly, and took up his position, tail between his legs, behind his master, we knew there was probably a lion about.

Mrs. Brigham rose, folded her rustling skirts compactly round her, and began tiptoeing toward the door. "What are you going to do?" inquired Rebecca agitatedly. "I am going to see what he is about," replied Mrs. Brigham cautiously.
"Oh, don't use that tone!" she said agitatedly, "I didn't ask him to come here I never encouraged him why, I never thought of him! Am I to blame?" "Look here," said Silver suddenly.
