Before he had ceased speaking he saw that Eve's look was directed towards something at a distance behind him; she smiled, and at length nodded, in recognition of some person who approached. Then a voice caused him to look round. "Oh, there you are! I have been hunting for you ever so long." As soon as Hilliard saw the speaker, he had no difficulty in remembering her.

To begin with, it might seem at first sight more correct to define recognition as "I have seen this before" than as "this has existed before." I am not sure that there is anything substantial in this point.

And with that he popped the bit of stone into his bag, which the boys now saw was filled with similar objects. "Maybe he'll let us get by now," remarked Tom, but a sudden exclamation from Dick Donovan cut him short. "Why, hullo, professor," he said, "out collecting specimens?" The little man peered at him sharply. And then broke into a smile of recognition.

Pendleton reflected that she knew very little about her niece, whom she had not seen since she was a small girl, but the recollection of her set face and tragic eyes at the dinner table impelled prompt recognition of the fact that she was going to be difficult to manage.

He couldn't believe that it was anything but lack of recognition. It was hard to see here, where the other was facing the light, and he was in the shadow. But it still meant that they were waiting, nearby. He dashed up the stairs, expecting a rush at both landings. The normal sounds of the apartment house went on.

There had been only one of the colonel's articles printed as yet, and though it had made a sensation in its way, and started the talk about that number, still it did not fairly constitute him a member of the staff, or even entitle him to recognition as a regular contributor. Fulkerson felt so sure of pleasing him with Dryfoos's message that he delivered it in full family council at the widow's.
