Lone stiffened in his chair, felt under his coat, and then got up with some deliberation and looked out of the window before he went to the door. All this was a matter of habit, bred of Lone's youth in the feud country, and had nothing whatever to do with his conscience. "Hello!" he called, standing in the doorway and grinning a welcome to Swan, who stood with one arm resting on the board gate.
The following answer was transmitted to the Senate, the next morning: "The honorable proof of your esteem, given in your deliberation of the 8th, will remain forever engraven on my heart. In the three years which have just elapsed fortune has smiled upon the republic. But fortune is fickle. How many men whom she has loaded with favors, have lived a few years too long.
"You know it was that arternoon that fool Stacey sent the sheriff and the Harrisons over to McKinstry's barn." "Go on!" petulantly said the master, who had his own reasons for not caring to recall it.

If she were not there we should not be making-believe here with such comfortable deliberation. It would be the real thing. Bobby Little, who by this time can almost discern spiked German helmets in the gloom, stands tingling.
In this happy state of things, it is not surprising that the management of Magua prevailed. The tribe consented to act with deliberation, and with one voice they committed the direction of the whole affair to the government of the chief who had suggested such wise and intelligible expedients. Magua had now attained one great object of all his cunning and enterprise.

When he had asked her to become his wife she had teasingly asked for time for deliberation; but this was not because she felt any especial doubt about ultimately accepting him.
