"Where's Shorty Hobb with his fiddle?" said he. "Parky wouldn't leave him come," answered Bone. "He loaned him money on his vierlin, and he says he owns it and won't leave him play in no church that ever got invented." "Parky, hey?" said Jim, drawlingly. "Wal, bless his little home'pathic pill of a soul!"
Lucius stretched himself out on the divan, caught at a thick, richly embroidered pillow, tossed it over his head on to the floor, yawned, raised himself again upright, and said drawlingly: "Y-e-s, it's as you say. I find I spend every sesterce I have, and all I can borrow. But so long as Phormio is accommodating, I don't trouble myself very much about the debts."
The bartenders there would not kick him. If he should eat too long or too often at one place they would swear at him as if by rote and without heat. They swore so drawlingly, and they rarely paused short of their full vocabulary, which was copious, so that Chicken had often gulped a good meal during the process of the vituperative prohibition.
At an early meeting of the society, while we were solemnly struggling through a dignified programme, Barlow suddenly appeared from a side-door rigged out most fantastically in plumes and draperies.

"Silence," commanded Mollie, raising a pickle fork threateningly. "Else in a twinkling I will split thee to the heart " "Goodness, she's got it, too," sighed Grace drawlingly. "What?" asked Mollie briskly, "I'm always interested in my symptoms " "It isn't a disease, you goose," drawled Grace. "Unless," she added, as a second thought, "you can call insanity a disease "

As though the thought were an amusing one he inquired drawlingly: "Be he one of ther fellers thet seeks ter wed Harper's gal, too?" At that question Rowlett snorted his disdain. "Him? Thet tub of fat-meat?
Few men in the world could have made it, and gotten away with it. None in a different setting. Courtrey heard it, but he paid little heed to it at the moment. His eyes went to the face of Tharon Last and drank in its beauty hungrily. Presently he shifted his gaze and regarded Kenset with a cold light that was evil. "Who wants 'em?" he asked drawlingly. "We do." "Hell! Want Courtrey's guns!
As soon as he was able he went forth to find his rescuer, and met him suddenly on turning a corner of the street. Before he could stammer out the gratitude that was in his heart, Jopp, eyeing him with a sneering smile, said drawlingly: "If you'd had your hair cut like that I couldn't have got you out, could I? Holy, what a sight! Next time I'll take you by the scruff, putty- face bah!"
Flick's tones had never been more drawlingly soft, but there was a quality in them, an electric and ominous vibration, which boded ill for Hanson. Gallito nodded. "It is in his mind. It is his thought about her. If he said it to me when he forgot himself he will surely say it to her." "And you let him say it, Gallito? You let him go away safe after saying it?" Flick looked at him amazed.
Emmy was breathing heavily; Jenny's nostrils were pinched. "Well," at last said Jenny, drawlingly. "Didn't you hear the knock? Aren't you going to answer it?" She reached as she spoke to the hat lying upon the plate rack above the gas stove, looking fixedly away from her sister. Her air of gravity was unchanged.
