"Not any more of a bumpkin than I or any of the rest of us here. You are too high and mighty, Opsitius. It is true that in our countryside the only senators are Aemilius, Vedius and Satronius, and that in our immediate vicinity Hirnio and Hedulio are the only proprietors of equestrian rank but we commoners here are no bumpkins or clodhoppers." "I apologize," Tanno spoke conciliatingly.
It had begun in her advocacy of uprightness after her discovery of the will; it was imbuing her whole nature, making her to her own conscience that which he had called her a very hypocrite. He spoke more conciliatingly. 'Well, there's one thing, at all events, that you can't refuse to explain. Why didn't you tell me that you had met Eldon, and what he meant to do?
She took the bit of paper, folded it, and put it in her purse. As they were conveying the third oddly-shaped parcel through the kitchen, she said conciliatingly, "Curious it is to have charge of luggage so long and not exactly what it is to know!" He made no answer to this remark. But suddenly, in a startled, suppressed whisper, he exclaimed, "Who's that?" Anna looked round. "Eh?" she said.
If he does, I shall see him." The menace in this declaration moved Ewbert to another protest, which he worded conciliatingly: "I shall have to let you. But I know you won't say anything to convey a sense of responsibility to him. I couldn't forgive myself if he were allowed to feel that he had been preying upon me.
"You will arrange with the County about his funeral expenses?" "With the County? Billy Duncan's no pauper." "Why ain't he? I've been around and found out he's got nothin' in the bank." "You have?" He eyed Lamb for a moment. "Billy Duncan will not be buried by the County," he finished curtly. "I'm glad to hear that," said Lamb conciliatingly, and added: "Of course you're not counting on that $90?"
Instinctively Wallie's eyes sought the route he had selected, as he replied conciliatingly: "No reflection upon you and Red is intended, Mr. Hicks; it is just that Eastern people have different customs, and we have to humour them, although we may not agree with them."
"I'll have you know I'm a man of honor." "Sure sure," agreed Mr. Harris conciliatingly. "But that's not the idea, old chap. We don't buy this for ourselves, you understand. We're merely agents, and responsible to our chief. What'd we say if we came back with a bag of pot metal for our money?"
Wentworth in the background paused in the act of reclosing the door to stare at this gentleman whose name Albemarle had rendered so excellently well known. "And you to dare come 'ere?" thundered Feversham, thoroughly roused by the other's airy indifference. "You to dare come 'ere into my ver' presence?" Mr. Wilding smiled conciliatingly. "I came for my wife, my lord," he reminded him.
