I shall tell thee, fair son: this was thine own father's doublet and shirt, that he wore upon him that same day that he was slain.
They were, therefore, much taken aback when Maitland continued, addressing the jury: "The evidence against the prisoner would indeed seem overwhelming, even had we not his confession. Apart from this confession we have no incriminating evidence save such as has been furnished by the government's chief witness, M. Godin.
"Sir!" said the doctor, exceedingly taken aback, though the words had been spoken in the quietest manner possible "it a it has no fault, Sir that I am particularly aware of it is perfectly salubrious. Mrs. Plumfield, I will bid you good-day; I a I hope you will get well again." "I hope not, Sir!" said aunt Miriam, in the same clear hearty tones which had answered him before.
"Right-o," said Wilkins. "Name, please?" He reached for the room telephone. Jarrow was taken aback at the thought of being so abruptly thrust before a stranger he could not see.

He was taken aback at her words and manner, and stood, shifting uneasily from one foot to the other and with his eyes moving restlessly from side to side.

"An adequate protector even against these celebrated gunmen who run the camp as you have already admitted?" "An adequate protector you are the man!" Donnegan shivered. "I? I take your daughter to the camp and play her against Nelly Lebrun to win back Jack Landis? Is that the scheme?"

"Yes," said the other, "but that's what Professor Stewart taught men. And you said it was wicked of him." "Um " said the doctor, taken aback. "Don't you see?" went on Samuel eagerly.
Shall I take the bag?" "If you want it. But I must take out the note-books." "Why must you take them?" she asked. "Why, haven't I got to copy the notes out into longhand?"
