Part of the squad were looking apprehensively toward hiim, as if they feared a volley from bushwhackers concealed near him, and others were taking from the bodies of the dead the weapons, belts, and other articles which it was not best to leave for the pursuers, and still others were pointing to the rapidly growing distance between them and main body, apparently adjuring haste in following.
Ned looked round him apprehensively for something else, but Bisset said: "We've taken him upstairs, sir."

She had turned suddenly pale. Now she glanced apprehensively first at her friend, then at me, and then at the American detective Albeury. Deep perplexity as well as fear was in her eyes.
Looking at him mistrustfully and apprehensively, Rothschild began to advance, and stopped seven feet off. "Be so good as not to beat me," he said, ducking. "Moisey Ilyitch has sent me again.

"Maybe not," muttered Sandersen apprehensively.
