"Saved her from all this. Yes if it's really true!" Blake looked away, and spoke in a hushed voice: "It's it's true, Jimmy! Only a little while ago, there on the cliff edge when we saw your steamer, she she told me. It started yesterday after I bluffed off the lion. You see, she " "Lion?" ejaculated Lord James. "Yes." Blake flung up his head in an impatient gesture. "The beast tried to stalk us.
But the captain's yeoman, this particular captain's yeoman, has nothing to do with the story, except that his errand set Dalton off on a new tack. The captain's yeoman had come for a little advice. He always was after advice or information. A department document had come into the office that day with seventeen endorsements on it, and it had him bluffed. We all laughed at the face he drew.
"We did not force you; you could have said no, either of you, if you had desired." "Well, we do it now," Willibald answered, so decidedly and quickly that his uncle looked at him quite bluffed. "Toni sees as well as I that a mere marriage by arrangement is not right, and when one has felt the bliss of loving he must marry the object of that love and no other."
"Don't crow too soon," Scranton told him, unflinchingly, for boys are not to be so easily bluffed; and the Scranton fellows still had great confidence in their team, led by Hugh Morgan, as strong finishers. It began to look very much like a pitchers' battle from that time on. Kinsey was fast becoming invulnerable, and batter after batter failed to connect with his wizard delivery.
I know I'm in it and have to get out of it, but though I pulled Arabia for all I knew, and swam for all I was worth to reach Rock Point, and bluffed that poor devil out of taking Mumsie's bracelet, I kind of did it mechanically, not with any intention of putting things right, for I knew I was not going to die that time, because I'm sure that I shall know when I've got to die . . . understand, Dads?"
One can never be sure of a lion. This one might turn tail and run at the first intimation of attack Tarzan had bluffed many in his time but not now. The missile struck Numa full upon the snout a tender part of a cat's anatomy and instead of causing him to flee it transformed him into an infuriated engine of wrath and destruction.
Told me to get a move on, and hustle. Said he was trailing two crooks." "Oh!" said Tuppence, her eyes opening. "I see. Go on." "I hurried along right away. Beresford was there. He pointed out the crooks. The big one was mine, the guy you bluffed. Tommy shoved a ticket into my hand and told me to get aboard the cars. He was going to sleuth the other crook." Julius paused.
I've seen a few inquests held in this country over some men who bluffed in an emergency. We're no longer wild and woolly out here, but when we pull, we shoot. Remember that, sir." Parker felt himself abashed in the presence of this cool young man, for nothing is so disconcerting as a defeated enemy who refuses to acknowledge defeat.
I guess John Alloway ain't to be bluffed. He knows too much and they all know he knows enough. When John Alloway, 32 Main Street, with a ranch on the Katanay, says, 'We're coming Mr. and Mrs. John Alloway is coming, they'll get out their cards visite, I guess."
"That will be about all, Private Mock," said Prescott sternly. "You've bluffed your part well, and helped your friend to escape, but at all events I've got you!" "Do you " began the soldier, but stopped, further words failing him.
