"Well, how do you, my boy?" was the quick counter-question.

The original glamour had returned to every aspect of his new experience, and he tried excitedly to describe the wonders of the vestibule, the stairway and the big hall. In the midst of it he paused suddenly and fell to staring into vacancy. "Was that all," she asked, puzzled by his silence. "Lena dusts our rooms, doesn't she," was his rather startling counter-question.

His answer starts with a counter-question another 'why? to meet their' why? It then puts into words what they were thinking; namely, that it was easy to assume a power the reality of which could not be tested. To say, 'Thy sins be forgiven, and to say, 'Take up thy bed, are equally easy.

"Why press the point, Roy? It needn't make any real difference need it between you and me?" Her counter-question was still more direct, more searching. "Perhaps not now," he said.

The question of the Pharisees about the great commandment Matt. xxii. 34-40; Mark xii. 28-34. Jesus' counter-question about David's son and Lord Matt. xxii. 41-46; Mark xii. 35-37; Luke xx. 41-44.

These are the deeds that win empires! the argument in his favour ran. Are they of a character to maintain empires? the counter-question was urged.

The counter-question may draw some valuable matter by way of answer from the original questioner. In this case the counter-question was a reasonable one. McMunn, of McMunn Brothers, Limited, was a coal merchant. Lord Dunseverick, though a peer, belonged to the north of Ireland. He understood Belfast. "What I want," he said, "is to see Mr. Andrew McMunn."

Her reply, for instance, to the enquiry, What had induced her to go on with the affair, was a counter-question. "What else could I do?" she had asked, with pencilled brows arched.
