Frowenfeld smiled amusedly and apologetically at the same moment. "I am glad to meet you.
Jerry turned on him with a snarl, for the fellow had foolishly put up his hands. A few blows passed and then Jerry told what happened rather apologetically "It was a pity, Roger.

Granger, again looking at him with a puzzled air, "and what may you want to see me about? Not but what I am always at your service, as you know," he added apologetically. "This," he answered, suddenly seizing the clergyman by the coat in a way that made him start. "What my coat, do you mean?" "Don't be so foolish, Mr. Granger. No, about Beatrice."
