"Will you let go of that bridle, or shall I get off and walk back for assistance?" said Betty, getting angrier every moment. "Go back to the fort at once," ordered Alfred, authoritatively. "Captain Boggs' orders are that no one shall be allowed to leave the clearing." "Oh! Why did you not say so? I thought you were Simon Girty, or a highwayman.
I was angrier than ever when the knowledge of my own emotion forced itself upon me, angry with myself for being so silly, angry with Dicky for having brought such provocation upon me! I let my speech lash out blindly, not caring what I said: "You are wrong in one thing right in another. I am not jealous of Miss Draper.
He asked you to go out with him so he could try to borrow money of you, to save his rotten hide." "But, Bupps, he didn't ask me to go riding with him. I asked him to take me." "You asked him to take you?" I cried. "Don't talk so loud, Bupps! The people on the street will hear you." If there was anything she could have said that would have made me angrier than I already was, it was that.
My opponent, to whom I can give twenty, ran out when I was sixty-seven, and I put aside my cue pettishly. That in itself was bad form, but what would they have thought had they known that a waiter's impertinence caused it! I grew angrier with William as the night wore on, and next day I punished him by giving my orders through another waiter.
Then he was angry with himself and angrier still with Carl. He would get that switch at once and it must not be too limber, after all. Carl was talking the matter over in the graveyard with Faith and Una, who had just come home. They were horrified at the idea of his being whipped and by father, who had never done such a thing!

I was angry with your father for marrying her, and angrier still when I heard of the life she led heard of her at Monte Carlo, of which I never think without a shudder."
Priscilla looked at him from her sofa seat and wondered what she had done that she should be scourged in this manner by Morrisons. "You know my son, I believe?" said Mrs. Morrison in the stiffest voice; for the girl's face showed neither recognition nor pleasure, and though she would have been angry if she had looked unduly pleased she was still angrier that she should look indifferent. "Yes.
"It's a little too much to ask me to play maid to two charity students." Norma and Alice shrank back, but Betty sprang forward. "How dare you!" she flared, white with rage. "How dare you say such a thing! It's untrue, and you know it. Even if it were so, you have no right to say such an outrageous thing." Betty was angrier than she had ever been in her life.
"You didn't know anything about it. You didn't hear us talking, and we didn't see any reason to consult you about it." The Black Doctor stared from Dal to Tiger, his face growing angrier by the minute. He jerked to his feet, and stalked back and forth across the control room, glaring at them. Then he took a capsule from his pocket, gulped it down with some water, and sat back down.
Miss Blake, who is our housekeeper, was angrier than I have ever seen her. She had been so anxious that she had sent the police to look for us. But, of course, they had not found us. You ought to make allowances for what people do when they are anxious, so I forgive her everything, even what she said about Oswald being a disgrace to a respectable house.
