Faith lay, a little wearily, upon the couch her aunt had quitted; and was thinking, at the very moment with that sudden, breathless anticipation that sweeps over one, now and then, of a thing awaited apprehensively of whether this Saturday night would not probably bring him home when she caught the sound of a horse's feet that stopped before the house, and then a man's step upon the stoop.
"She is up to some trick." "She may have something really important to say to you," urged the girl. "No." Mildred leaned forward, and called to the ship's officer: "Show her up. I will see her." "Mildred, you mustn't talk to that woman!" her father cried. "It is very unwise," Marsh chimed in, apprehensively. "She isn't the sort of person "
Suddenly William broke off. She looked up apprehensively, brushing aside these thoughts with annoyance. "Where should I address a letter to Cassandra?" he asked her. It was obvious again that William had some meaning or other to-night, or was in some mood. "We've struck up a friendship," he added. "She's at home, I think," Katharine replied. "They keep her too much at home," said William.
He looked up eagerly, hoping the visitor might prove to be one of his jovial comrades of the night before. But he did not look so well pleased when, as the door opened, he caught sight of the pudgy figure and shrewd face of Elijah Daniels, the proprietor of the Euclid Hotel. "Good morning, Mr. Daniels." he said, rather apprehensively. "So you have found me out."
Eltwin lifted his voice, and said, trying to catch Triscoe's eye, "I think I ought to beg your pardon, sir. I do beg your pardon."

But Bashti kept his word, and on the third day was too busy, with a more momentous problem, to deliver Bubu and Nena to the blind old man who apprehensively waited their coming.
The stillness was complete again, too. THE two boys flew on and on, toward the village, speechless with horror. They glanced backward over their shoulders from time to time, apprehensively, as if they feared they might be followed.
The story of his imposture and of his escape, and the tales that the Waz-don slaves had brought into the city concerning him were soon spread throughout A-lur, nor did they lose aught in the spreading, so that before an hour had passed the women and children were hiding behind barred doorways while the warriors crept apprehensively through the streets expecting momentarily to be pounced upon by a ferocious demon who, bare-handed, did victorious battle with huge gryfs and whose lightest pastime consisted in tearing strong men limb from limb.
John Stanway's young women began to reflect apprehensively upon the sudden irregularities of his recent movements, his conferences with his lawyer, his bluffing air; a hundred trifles too insignificant for separate notice collected themselves together and became formidable. A certain atmosphere of forced and false cheerfulness spread through the house.
"Well," he said eagerly, as he sat down to the business of the meal, "what are we going to do this morning?" "Not talk so loudly, for one thing," said Antony. Bill looked about him apprehensively. Was Cayley under the table, for example? After last night one never knew. "Is er " He raised his eyebrows. "No. But one doesn't want to shout.
