"You must not see it, indeed, Miss Elinor; I dare say, you took it for anybody but the right person;" said Charlie, a good deal embarrassed, and hurriedly handing Elinor something else to look at. She was surprised at his nervous manner, but said nothing more. "I honestly think, Charlie," said Mr. Wyllys, who had been examining the landscape, that Mr. C , and Mr.
I realize, too, your kindness to me in the past; but I did look on the fellow as a man honestly trying to serve his country; and when it came to deliver him up to be hanged why I simply could not do it." Dan rose slowly. "I showed myself ungrateful to your interests. As I say, I appreciate what you have done.
Honest, no doubt. Mr. Wesley did not believe in human liberty. Honest, no doubt. Was opposed to the liberty of the colonies. Honestly so. Mr. Wesley preached a sermon entitled, "The Cause and Cure of Earthquakes," in which he took the ground that earthquakes were caused by sin and the only way to stop them was to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. No doubt an honest man.
Whether I should have yielded to or resisted the temptation is another matter. Honestly speaking, I think I should have resisted. You see, I should still have been engaged to Eleanor Faversham. . . . But now this somewhat unholy influence is gone from her. She has lifted me in her strong arms as a mother would lift a brat of ten.

Not a sound broke the stillness save the soft ripple of the water about the bow of the swan-like yacht. Nan sat humming a song, when she suddenly stopped and leaned toward Stuart. "Jim!" she said, softly. He looked up with a start. "I honestly believe you were asleep!" she laughed with a touch of petulance. "No," he protested seriously. "I was just drinking in the joy of this wonderful night."
That, my friends, is what I honestly believe to have been the clear and underlying purpose of the patriots who wrote a federal constitution to create a national government with national power, intended as they said, "to form a more perfect union. . . for ourselves and our posterity." For nearly twenty years there was no conflict between the Congress and the Court.
Now they fear it has settled on the lungs; but if we could get her abroad, all might be well." "You think so, honestly?" "I do. Courage, my friend; do not reproach yourself; it has nothing to do with us. She was taken ill of a cold, not of a letter, man!" "No, no; I judge her heart by my own. Oh, that I could recall the past!
Talbot, taking from her pocket the letter Arthur had given her, and holding it out to Florence, "and I want to know how I shall answer it. Would you would you honestly advise me, Flo, to go and meet him as he desires?" "As who desires?" "Ah, true; you do not know, of course! I am so selfishly full of myself and my own concerns, that I seem to think every one else must be full of them too.
Lehmann did not seem much put about by this defection on the part of one of his principal singers. "It is a pity," he said to Lionel.
