"Do not give yourself any uneasiness upon that score, Mrs. Corliss," he said, gently; "try to think of something else.

"You wrote to me?" she asked incredulously. "I wrote you three times. You don't mean to tell me you never got my letters?" "I never heard from you. I would I would have been so glad to!"
Wyndham made a feeble attempt to rouse himself, and turned to hear what the captain had to say. "You wonder," said Riddell, "how I came to know about that visit to Beamish's. Would it astonish you to hear that till this time yesterday I never knew about it at all?" "What!" exclaimed Wyndham, incredulously; "you were talking to me about it two or three days before."

"You don't say! Thanks for that tip about dressing up. I may explain," Linder continued, turning to Murdoch, "there was a time when I might have been an also-ran in the race for Y.D.'s daughter, only Transley beat me on the getaway." "You!"

"You came to ask your father to help you?" echoed his mother incredulously. "Why not?" demanded Jefferson.
"He has queer notions about a new kind of democracy which he says is coming. I think he is the kind of man who would be willing to die for it." "What, in these days!"

There are such men," he added, "but they are rare.
It's business, which is at the other end of the world." "You're not honestly defending him, Bobby?" she protested incredulously. "Why, I do believe you are considering the man seriously!"
