She followed him, took him by the coat-sleeve again, and led him over into one corner: “Listen, Daniel,” she stammered, “my father—he must give you all the money you need. For years ago your father gave him all the money he had, and told him to keep it for you. Do you understand? I happened to hear about it one time when my father was talking about it to my mother.
"I consider that the situation will be very much preferable to this," observes Gentleman Bill, polishing his hat with his coat-sleeve. "Better quarter of the town; more central; eligible locality for establishing a tailor-shop." "Legible comicality for stablin' a shailor-top!" stammers Joe, mimicking his brother.
More than one blithe and buoyant person has been frozen into respectful silence in such a foolhardy undertaking. His middle name is Christian and it does not belie a strong phase of his character.

He dropped into a chair and rubbed his forehead with his coat-sleeve. "Well," said Bannon, "do you like the look of things? I hope you didn't find anything out of the way?" "Do you dare ask me that?"

Modern collars are retained in position by a system of screws and levers.
"Now, sir, I will trouble you for that letter." I looked at him in astonishment. There was a strange something in his eyes I had never seen there before; a mad, irresponsible something that cared not for consequences; a something that makes heroes of some men and murderers of others. I stood motionless. Slowly he pushed the point of his rapier through my coat-sleeve.

He sprang to his feet and clutched at Captain Sam's coat-sleeve. "No," he shouted. "Course there ain't anybody. Wh-what makes you say such a thing as that? I I tell you I did find the money. I did I did." "Jed! Of course you didn't. I know you didn't. I KNOW. Gracious king, man, be sensible." "I did! I did! I found it and now I give it back to you. What more do you want, Sam Hunniwell?
