On the first Sunday after the wedding Pete came up-stairs to tell his master, William, that Mrs. Stetson wanted to see him in the drawing-room. William went down at once. "Well, Aunt Hannah," he began, reaching out a cordial hand. "Why, what's the matter?" he broke off concernedly, as he caught a clearer view of the little old lady's drawn face and troubled eyes.
"Poor Widger," she said, "he ... he cried!" She came to the table where Henry was writing, and placed her hand on his shoulder, and looked concernedly at him. "Aren't you tired, Henry?" she said. "No, thanks!" he answered, glancing up at her and smiling. "You mustn't tire yourself!" she bent over him and kissed his forehead lightly. "You've been a great help, Henry," she said.
It had that look, peculiar to some men, of having been steeped in linseed oil, with its waxed dark moustaches and the little distinguished commencements of side whiskers; and concernedly he felt the promise of a pimple on the side of his slightly curved and fattish nose. In the meantime old Jolyon had found the remaining chair in Timothy's commodious drawing-room.
She looked concernedly at her little, high-heeled shoes. I stooped to flick the dust from their patent leather. "Thank you, Punch. What shall I do about my hair, then?" "Wear it in a pig-tail. I'll plait it for you. It'll be worth another sovereign to the Bananas." "If you put it like that " she said slowly. "I do, Judy."
"My dear," said old Mrs. Douglass, looking up concernedly, "surely you're not in earnest!" "I think," remarked Lady Douglass impartially, "that she is acting with great wisdom." "I was wishing to-day," the girl went on, raising her voice, "that I hadn't got myself engaged. It happened because of a misunderstanding, and I did it on the impulse of the moment; all the same, it can't be helped.
It seemed to come more distinctly as David crushed out the life of the mouse, as if pounding a protest upon the wall. "Tavish has hung his meat low," he said concernedly. "Quite careless of him, unless it is a very large quarter." He began slowly to undress. "We might as well turn in," he suggested. "When Tavish shows up the dogs will raise bedlam and wake us.
Parties in Oxford always break up early, and Milly had a good excuse for carrying her aching, disappointed heart back to Ascham at ten o'clock, for every one knew she was working hard. Too hard, Mr. Fletcher said, looking concernedly at her heavy eyes, mottled complexion, and the little crumples which were beginning to come in her low white forehead.
Moore went to him, and laid her fingers on his arm. "Sidney!" she protested sharply, "you must stop this not for Peter; he's as naughty as he can be, like all other boys his age sometimes; but you don't want to kill Jean!" And, to her self-contempt, she began to cry. "My dear girl," he said concernedly, "you mustn't take this matter too hard. Jean knows enough of our family history to realize "
When he entered, she stepped in after him, followed by Genevieve and Mrs. Gantry. Darting his glances about the office in keen search, Mr. Leslie crossed the room to stare concernedly at the litter of torn maps and papers on the floor in front of the desk. He hurried to the inner door and rapped vigorously. There was no immediate response. He rapped again.

We can't afford to have anything happen to you you're too young." I wondered whether he had heard anything.... He spoke to me again about the work to be done, the work he looked to me to carry on.
