It won't take five minutes to explain Mr. Goodfellow here, just as easily " "And as for me," struck in Miss Belcher, "I'm an old madwoman, with more money than I know what to do with. And as for Jack Rogers, I'm eloping with him to a coral island." Mr. Rogers checked himself on the edge of a guffaw. "But, I say, Lydia, you're not serious about this?" he asked. "I don't know, Jack.
Some in that noble company nudged one another, and one there was who burst into a loud guffaw. "Charlot has often told me so," she laughed, all unsuspicious. The Marquis moved on his horse that he might bend lower.
There was a guffaw at my expense and 'arf and 'arf as well, for all the party, or else quarrel. As it was, my stout stick probably saved me from the "personal touch." I stayed until the factory-bells rang, and out my new-found friends scurried for fear of being the fatal five minutes late and getting locked out.
"Take the boat, is it?" he exclaimed, with a loud guffaw. "Oh no, misther; that won't do at all at all. We shall want the boat for ourselves. And we shall want your help, too, to navigate the brig for us, and we mane to have it, begor'ra!"
"I can assure you, sir," said the Count in his best English, "that this incident is the result of an unfortunate misunderstanding, and if you will oblige us by dismissing these myrmidons, any of my friends here will be happy to offer satisfaction to Mr. Bracknell and his companions."

Never would it be obliterated never. Throughout the afternoon Laurence busied himself greatly over the final preparations. Lilith would not be alone.
He was a large-limbed man with a permanent slouch and a red and sullen countenance that very faithfully bore witness to his habits. He stood and regarded Nick with a fixed and somewhat aggressive stare. "Where's the missis?" he said. "That's just what I want to know," said Nick. Briggs uttered an uneasy guffaw as if he suspected the existence of a joke that had somewhat eluded him.
I have him to fall back upon, at all events." Capital! He gave a short guffaw, and resumed his cigar. But Lucy was angry: obviously because he had wasted good jealousy on a mere fancy. Damn it, he had overdone it. The next thing if he didn't look out would be that she would give him something to be jealous of. He must calm her there would be no difficulty in that, no loss of prestige.
I tell you, fellows, that wireless telephone is a wonder. Talk about the stories of the Arabian Nights! They aren't in it." There was a loud guffaw behind the lads, accompanied by snickers, and the friends turned around to see three boys following them.
