The others," bulking them as being of no consequence, "are all gentlemen who are employed on the directory under Mr. Hertz." "Have you any Italian lodgers other than Mr. Spatola?" The woman shook her head. "No," she said, "and I don't want none, if this is the way they carry on." "Are there any other rooming houses in the street?" "No, sir. It's only a block long, and I know every house in it.
And, Gavegan, I don't see why the Board of Health lets you stay around the streets when putrefying matter causes so much disease." "None of your lip, young feller!" growled Gavegan. He stepped closer, bulking over Larry. "You think you are such a damned smart talker and such a damned clever schemer but I'll bet I'll have you locked up in six months." Anger boiled up within Larry.
Just off the side entrance was a back hall in which lurked a dark smelly little telephone booth under a staircase, too far removed from the noisy crowd that frequented the place to be heard. Here Link took instant refuge with Shorty bulking largely in front of the door, smoking a thin black twisted cigar, and looking anything but happy.
These steps gave to all this part of the line the name of Jacob's Ladder. From the top of Jacob's Ladder there is a good view of the valley road running down into Beaumont Hamel.

Straight as an arrow, bulking large upon a little gray mare, he moved not the fraction of an inch with the question. Whereupon the little man, after muttering something further about Zeke, relapsed into silence.
"Mama mine! she's coming down to the bunkhouse!" said Weary under his breath, and glanced back over his shoulder at the White House bulking large in the night. "Let's go on down to the stable and roost in the hay a while." "She'll out-wind us, and be right there waiting when we come back," objected Andy, with the wisdom gained from his brief acquaintance with the lady.
MacRae lifted his head to see his father's friend and his own, Doctor Laidlaw, physician and fisherman, bulking large. And beyond the doctor he saw a big white launch at anchor inside the Cove. "Yes," MacRae said. "How's your father?" Laidlaw asked. "That wire worried me. I made the best time I could." "He's dead," MacRae answered evenly. "He died at midnight." Inheritance
But soon a new idea sent a thrill through his heart. No sign of recognition was made to him as the ship drew near. Evidently the look-out was careless. Leaping up, Watty seized the oar, waved his flag frantically, and yelled out his alarm. Still the ship bore majestically down on him, her huge bow bulking larger and higher as she drew near.
At forty-one he still retained his travelling commission from the Smithsonian Institution, while his friends insisted that he knew more about sugar "bugs" than the expert entomologists employed by him and his fellow sugar planters in the Experiment Station.
