When he passed the tavern Dexter Beers hailed him. "Say, anythin' wrong to the parson's?" "No," returned Eugene, sharply, and strode on. "Didn't know but you see smoke, you were lookin' up at the house so stiddy," called Beers, conciliatingly; but Eugene swung down the road without another look. All his grace of manner was forgot in the stir of passion within him.
She ventured timidly: "I thought you might take it until something worth while turned up." "Maybe," he sneered, "I could get a job swamping in 'Tinhorn's' place washing fly specks off the windows and sweeping out." "Of course, you're right, Jap," conciliatingly, but she sighed unconsciously as she went back to her work.
I happen to know that, little as she likes me, she is about the only one in the Station who keeps her tongue from slander and the truth. As for John Stafford, if he is a narrow-minded bigot, he is at least a man, and that is something to appreciate." "That is just what I think!" Mrs. Cary said conciliatingly. "And therefore he is the very husband for you, dear child."
Bob Flick shot a warning glance at Gallito, who was about to speak, and took a hasty step forward. "Look here, Pearl," he said conciliatingly, "don't mind your Pop. The strain on him's been awful. It's been hard on all of us.
Madden, the treasurer of a large shoe company, when they met on the marble tiles of the hall in their Boston club. "All right. Why?" "Well," replied Madden, conciliatingly, "you seem kind of preoccupied, that's all. I didn't know but what the fifty-four hour bill the legislature's just put through might be worrying you." "We'll handle that situation when the time comes," said Ditmar.
The face, gnarled and tempestuously bearded, which had been perpetuated by a hundred laborious painters, glared from the pillow at Rufin with indignation and protest. Rufin suppressed an impulse to speak forcibly, for one has no more right to strip a man of his pose than of his shirt. He smiled at the angry invalid conciliatingly. "See how I forget myself!" he said apologetically.
The usurer had no intention of giving up his prey without a struggle, however, and turning to Florestan, with the same ease as if they had been on the most friendly terms, he said conciliatingly: "M. Louis Richard can tell you what conditions I proposed and under what circumstances I made him this offer; you will then be better able to judge if my demands were exorbitant.
An' she that kin' and gentle-like oh, we ain't goin' to git no new cow like Muley, no time right soon, I want to tell you that, Jim Bowles." "Well, well, I know all that," said her husband, conciliatingly, a trifle easier now that the sunbonnet was for the moment turned aside. "That's all true, mighty true. But what kin you do?" "Do? Why, do somethin'! Somebody sho' ought to suffer for this heah.
She was just in the nick of time, she said to herself, when she saw the trio presently coming over the top of the hill. Ody was pointing out conciliatingly to the morose Rory how they'd be at home now nearly in the time he'd be waggin' his tail; and Hugh McInerney was resolving that he would go on straight to his own place, and defer the presentation of the ugly yellow ribbon until to-morrow.
All at once it struck me that if I really frightened him too much they might decamp without making a clean sweep. I sobered at once. "I'm not crazy," I said. "Sure you're not," said the burglar conciliatingly. "But I assure you " "That's all right." "I'm perfectly sane." "Sane as a house!" "There's nothing to be afraid of." "Course there isn't.
