"Wait a minute," she cried, putting out her hands. "Wait. You don't understand. I have got something to say to you." She might as well have talked to the wind. McTeague put aside her hands with a single gesture, and gripped her to him in a bearlike embrace that all but smothered her. Trina was but a reed before that giant strength.
Dorcas sank, almost fainting with terror, to the ground; but the spectre for such it seemed to her paid no heed to her, but sprang upon her pursuer, who had at that moment come up, and the next moment had his arms wound about him in a bearlike embrace, whilst all the time he was laughing an awful laugh.
See-lect your pardners for the waltz!" There was a great rushing to and fro in preparation. Men bowed to each other with burlesque dancing school formality, offered arms, or accepted them with bearlike coyness. We stood for a moment rather bewildered, not knowing precisely what to do. "You belong over that side," McNally instructed us. "I go over here; I'm a 'lady." "Why?" I asked.
With one sweep of his right hand he tore the hands of the sheriff from the boy's arms; the gesture was bearlike in power. "What's the meaning of all this, Mr. Sawyer?" he said, addressing the sheriff. "Your boy has killed a man." "You lie!" "It's true anyhow, he has stabbed Clint Slocum. He ain't dead, but he's hurt bad." "Is that true, Harold?" Harold did not lift his sullen glance.
Tell you what the trouble is with you, old man: you're too modest. A fellow that's done what you've done, following a kid that ain't twenty-five!" There was a bearlike grunt from Jeff. He was not altogether displeased by this gracious tribute. But he answered: "You're too slippery with your tongue, Scottie. I never know when you mean what you say!"
Woola leaped in frantic joy when he discovered me; and as the flier touched the pavement of the court for a brief instant he bounded to the deck beside me, and in the bearlike manifestation of his exuberant happiness all but caused me to wreck the vessel against the courtyard's rocky wall.
A guttural command in Navaho and a careless wave of the revolver brought Pete and his wounded but still active companion hurrying forward. Carmena sprang up and held out her arms to the trader. Lennon failed to see her face. He saw only how Slade swept his left arm about the girl and swung her around in a bearlike embrace. Lennon sought to leap up.
He would have been voted quite a Lochinvar in the days when men procured their wives by right of discovery and the ability to retain possession, and had he dared, he would have made love to Donna in his bearlike way.
Must be forty pounds of gold there. And you found it. You're the original mascot, little person." He bestowed a bearlike hug upon her. "Now what?" she asked. "It hardly seems real to pick up several thousand dollars in half an hour or so like this. What will we do?" "Do? Why, bless your dear soul," he laughed.
Then, seizing her in a bearlike embrace, the Irishwoman whispered: "It is downright ashamed of myself you've made me; and if I don't do better in future, then my name is not Juliana Kathleen M'Crawney, and never has been!" "Good-bye! We shall get home all right; don't worry about us," Katherine answered bravely.
