"But what's a guy like you want with a shuvver?" "Well, to drive my car and " "Car?" said the Spider, his uneasiness growing, "got a car now, have ye, bo?" "I rather think I've got six." "Sufferin' Sam!" The Spider scratched his chin while his keen eyes roved over Ravenslee's exterior apprehensively. "Say, bo, you quite sure none o' th' bunch booted you on th' dome eh?" "Quite sure."
It proved that Miss Upton's new acquaintance had an appointment later at a hotel near by, so thither they repaired when the ice-cream was finished. "Now tell me all about it," said Miss Mehitable encouragingly, when they had found the vacant corner of a reception-room and sat down side by side. "I feel like holding on to you and not letting you go," said the girl, looking about apprehensively.
Once, indeed, I remember that when he handed me live bait to put upon the hook I turned suddenly pale and burst into tears. When I had done it I looked at him apprehensively, dreading to see his contempt written in his face, but there was no such thing. There was instead the dawn of a new feeling. My cousin's face wore such an expression as I had never seen in it before.
Hunter Quatermain glanced round the table apprehensively; he did not seem to appreciate finding himself the object of so much curiosity. "Ladies and gentlemen," he said at last, with a shake of his grizzled head, "I am very sorry to disappoint you, but I cannot do it. It is this way.

"What if it should rain?" questioned Emma apprehensively.
I had looked forward apprehensively to the proving of my identity and the establishment of my motives as a disagreeable necessity; I speedily found out that the most disagreeable part of the business was that it couldn't be done.
"You're the finest girl I've ever met, anyhow," said Mr. Scales with gallant emphasis, and he dug his stick into the soft ground. She blushed and made no answer. They walked on in silence, each wondering apprehensively what might happen next. Suddenly Mr. Scales stopped at a dilapidated low brick wall, built in a circle, close to the side of the road. "I expect that's an old pit-shaft," said he.
The carriage turned into a second side street, narrower and darker than the last. "Are we going right?" she said apprehensively. "No, madame; we are going wrong we are going to the wicked part of the city." "But but you are sure Mr. Greyne will be there?" Abdallah Jack laughed sardonically. "Monsieur Greyne is never anywhere else. Monsieur Greyne is wicked as is a mad Touareg of the desert."
It had been curious that this handsome, boyish fellow should come as an emissary from Bill Gregg. It was more curious still that he should have had the daring and the strength to beat Harry Morgan. "What shall I do, Ruth?" she asked suddenly. Ruth Tolliver glanced apprehensively at John Mark and then flushed, but she raised her head bravely.
Simon Basset was the largest land-owner in the village, and the dust and loam of his own acres seemed to have formed a gray grime over all his awkward homespun garb. Never a woman he met but looked apprehensively at his great, clomping, mud-clogged boots.
