"What does that poor child know? Oh, find him for me, if you love that dear child's mother!" Sir Charles hurried out directly, but was met at the door by a servant, who blurted out, "The men have dragged the fish-ponds, Sir Charles, and they want to know if they shall drag the brook." "Hold your tongue, idiot!" cried Sir Charles, and thrust him out; but the wiseacre had not spoken in vain.

Her right forearm was clutched tightly in her left hand, while the white cheeks, centred with the spots of flaming red, reminded him of the time he had first seen her angry. "He hurt my arm," she blurted out, in reply to his look of inquiry. He smiled involuntarily. It was so like her, so like the boy she was, to come running to complain of the physical hurt which had been done her.

"Will you speak up?" queried Brice, sickened at the sight, but steeling himself with the knowledge of the captive's crimes and of the vast amount at stake. Roke rolled his eyes horribly, grinding his yellowed teeth together to check his own cries. Then, sobbingly, he blurted: "Yes! Lemme loose!" "Not till you tell," refused Gavin. "Quick, now!"

One day I noticed the loving cup which was always on Anne's table, which was admired by everyone who came to the apartment, and was said to recall her, herself, so pure and graceful and perfect one day the loving cup was gone. I was so surprised when my eye fell on its vacant place that I blurted out: "Goodness, Anne, where's your cup?" The next moment I could have bitten out my tongue.

And she smiled and turned away with the uniformed snob by her side. MacRae had loitered purposely, and I overtook him in a few rods. "Well," I blurted out, as near angry as I ever got at MacRae in all the years I'd known him, "you're a high-headed cuss, confound you! Is it a part of your new philosophy of life to turn your back on every one that you ever cared anything for?"

"Am I? Thank God there are men and men. You can't be what Carey said." For once he had spoken incautiously. He had blurted out something he never meant to say. "Mr. Carey!" she exclaimed quickly, curiously. "What did Mr. Carey say I was?" "Oh " "No, Robin, you are to tell me. No diplomatic lies."

Brown was sitting. "Good-morning, sir. I am glad to see you. I am sorry to say that Bijou is out. She has gone driving with our guest: an English guest, by the way, Mr. Drummond. He came on with us from New York, and has been here ever since, except the last two weeks, which he has spent in Chicago," said Mr. Brown. "That's what I've come about," blurted out Mr.

After he had spoken about five minutes and was getting warmed up to his subject, he made an assertion which sounded a little fishy, and some one back in the audience blurted out, 'That's a damned lie. The speaker halted in his discourse and looked at Masterson, who arose, and, drawing two six-shooters, looked the audience over as if trying to locate the offender.

"I've got an engagement to meet your father and he won't let me go," blurted out Fox. "When did you make that hurry-up appointment, Chet?" laughed Dingwell. "You didn't seem in no manner of hurry when you was lying in the mesquite back there at Lonesome Park." "You've got no business to keep him here. He can go if he wants to," flashed the young woman. "You hear that, Chet.

"Say, do you think I'm as foolish as I look?" blurted Eph, half-indignantly. Those were the last words exchanged, for the "Pollard," now moving slowly forward, had left its detached door astern. With only a couple of feet of the conning tower above surface, the "Pollard" began to make good submerged time forward. Presently the little craft dropped below the water altogether.
