"He'd need a strong light, and moccasins, so he could cling to the rocks. I believe it could be done, and I've thought a good deal about exploring it myself for a day or two past. If I don't draw a low number I think I'll tackle it." "Don't you attempt it!" she cried, clutching his arm and turning her white face to him affrightedly. "Don't you ever dare try it!"
"Somebody's left a dog outside," said a teamster, and rose to let him in. He opened the door only to retreat affrightedly. "My God!" he said. "My God!" and the miners crowded forward. A figure tottered over the portal, swaying drunkenly. They shuddered at the sight of its face as it crossed toward the fire.
My name is Herbert Russell, but they call me Bert, for short." "Thank you," said Winwood, and was just about to go down the garden walk between Madge and little Tom, when the whole party was stopped by a faint boo-hooing, in a soft and timid voice, a short distance up the street. "'Tis Fanny," cried Mrs. Faringfield, affrightedly, and ran out from the garden to the street.
At the instant when that reference to the girl's last employer escaped Magdalen's lips, Louisa snatched her hand away and started up affrightedly from her chair. There was a moment's silence. Both mistress and maid were equally taken by surprise. Magdalen was the first to recover herself. "Is it getting too dark?" she asked, significantly. "Are you going to light the candles, after all?"
The room was dinning with the strains of an invisible orchestra and the vocal uproar; topping the confusion came shrieks from the excitable peacocks; the wild birds twittered and beat themselves affrightedly against the netting. Becoming conscious of Lorelei's gaze, her escort looked down, showing his teeth in a grin that was not of pleasure. "You like it?" he asked.
"What is the matter?" asked the astonished Jack. "Now, ain't dot funny? He Indian ain't dere!" "Yes, he is," shouted Jack, suspecting trickery. "He will shoot you, if you don't bring him down!" Otto glanced affrightedly behind him, as though he heard a stealthy footstep, but called back once more that the Shawanoe had disappeared.
Like Kerry, he always carried an electric pocket-lamp, and now he directed its rays into the interior of the building. A tiny spaniel, whining excitedly, was engaged in scratching with its paws upon the dirty floor as though determined to dig its way through. As the light shone upon it the dog crouched affrightedly, and, glancing in Seton's direction, revealed its teeth.
He could see the shapely folds of the skirt, the symmetry of the bodice, even the harmony of the trimmings. He raised his eyes, half affrightedly, prepared to see the headless shoulders, but they and what seemed to be a head were concealed in a floating "cloud" or nubia of some fleecy tissue, as if for protection from the evening air.
No less astounding was the uncanny legerdemain displayed in drawing from and replacing the weapon in its place of concealment. The Indians, attracted from the store by the sounds of shooting, began gabbling and gesticulating affrightedly, but when MacDavid spoke to them sharply in Cree they retreated inside again.
Some circled in the air and occasionally swooped down towards the ground only to rocket up again affrightedly to the sky; for the tiger lay by its kill and resented the approach of any daring bird that aspired to share the feast. Muriel hurriedly explained how the conduct of the birds indicated the beast's presence.
