I had a choky sensation in my throat about then, and my breath came a little short; but I managed to get out husky, "Well, toss it over." Westy beams grateful. "Isn't it wonderful?" says he. "I I've got her!" "Eh?" I gasps, grippin' a chair back. "She just told me," says he, "in there. She's she's wearing my ring now." Got me right under the belt buckle, that did.
"Don't you see that creature with a yellow thing in her turban, and a red satin gown, and a great watch?" "Near the pretty little woman in white?" asked a middle-aged gentleman seated by the querist's side, with orders in his button, and several under-waistcoats, and a great, choky, white stock.
Laurie drew his hand across his eyes, but could not speak till he had subdued the choky feeling in his throat and steadied his lips. It might be unmanly, but he couldn't help it, and I am glad of it. Presently, as Jo's sobs quieted, he said hopefully, "I don't think she will die. She's so good, and we all love her so much, I don't believe God will take her away yet."
'Arright, Liza, I won't stay where I'm not wanted. And turning on his heel he marched off, striking through the underwood into the midst of the forest. He felt extremely unhappy as he wandered on, and there was a choky feeling in his throat as he thought of Liza: she was very unkind and ungrateful, and he wished he had never come to Chingford.
The miner was a big fellow, and the other was just a slip of a boy. So he couldn't drag in his friend, but he got another man to go out with him, and between them they did it right enough. And when I was in the clearing station next day, I saw the two the miner in bed, awfully smashed up, and the other sitting by him. It made one feel choky.
He knew nothing of buoys, but they relieved his loneliness; they were signs of human beings, who must have placed him there with the bread and water, and who might come for him.

No! his old aunts, if they never opened their minds, their eyes, or very much their windows, at least had manners, and a standard, and reverence for past and future.

"She made me sort o' choky," said Tildy as she related the circumstance afterwards to Mrs. Martin. "There was a hair about her.

"What can I do for you?" said Aneta now, in a kind tone. Tildy dropped an awkward curtsy.
The pulp, which is the bread-part, is said to resemble a baked potato and is very white and tender, but, unless eaten soon after the fruit is gathered, it grows hard and choky." "So Edie's 'loaves of bread' are green?" said Malcolm, rather teasingly. "That's because they grow on a tree," replied Clara.
And you, sir . . . I have read all the letters to poor Miss Lucy, and some of them speak of you, so I know you since some days from the knowing of others, but I have seen your true self since last night. You will give me your hand, will you not? And let us be friends for all our lives." We shook hands, and he was so earnest and so kind that it made me quite choky.
