I'd been enjoyin' this gen'ral inspection stunt for four or five minutes, when maids begun circulatin' among the mob with trays of sandwiches and plates of chicken salad, and every last one of 'em stopped at my station. "No, thanks," says I. Think I wanted to give a food destroyin' performance before an audience like that?
"I'll hould no more discoorse wid that circulatin' vagabone," replied Jemmy; "I'm a Christian man a peaceable man; an' I know what my religion ordhers me to do when I meet the likes of him and that is when he houlds the one cheek towardst me to give him a sound Christian rap upon the other. So to the divil I pitch, you, you villain, sowl and body, an' that's the worst I wish you.
He may bust his b'iler and blow up with spite, but he won't talk about you, Charlie, I honestly believe. And we can all thank the major for that." "I shall thank him, for one!" "Mercy on us! No, no. He doesn't know your story at all. He just thinks Babbitt was circulatin' lies about Ruth about your sister. You mustn't mention the Middleford er mess to Major Grover." "Humph!

"So it's a hold-up," said Locke, looking at Trask. "You've got it," said Trask. "They set out to get gold, and can't find it. Now they think we'll pay them a good price to get out."
Botcher and Jane and Bascom are circulatin' like hot water, tellin' everybody that because they wouldn't saddle the State with a debt with your bills you turned sour on 'em, and that you're more of a corporation and railroad man than any of 'em. They've got their machine to working a thousand to the minute, and everybody they have a slant on is going into line.

Why, when you start to savin' an' draw in what ought to be circulatin', you steal from them what haven't had the chance 'at you've had. It's wicked to be thrifty."

But I am not going away, so her story will have to be revised. What else did she say, Miss Doane?" "Well I jest can't remember all she said but you said jest now you was happy.
"Look, here, Perfessor," he said, sticking his head in the dining cabin door, "de gas machine hab stopped circulatin'." "Did you shut off the power?" "No, sah! I ain't done gone and shut off no power!" Making his way as best he could while the ship pitched and tossed, Amos Henderson reached the engine room. He looked at the gas generator.
"Hogan had betther keep quiet," said Mr. Hennessy. "If he goes circulatin' anny stories about me I'll " "Ye needn't worry," said Mr. Dooley.
