I was familiar, of course, with Somers's opinion that the Colonel was an awfully good sort; that had been among the preliminaries and become understood as the base of all references. And I liked Robert Harbottle very well myself. When his adjutant called him a born leader of men, however, I felt compelled to look at the statement consideringly.
But, newly cleaned, it stood coldly immaculate in its yard of shaven lawn set about with clipped shrubberies. As for her uncle, Alexina found herself applying the same adjectives to him, shaven, immaculate, cold. She wondered what he thought of her, but Uncle Austen never made personal remarks. Aunt Harriet, on joining her niece in the East early in the summer, had looked at her consideringly.
"If, conscientiously, you can denounce me; if, conscientiously, you can revile me; if, conscientiously, you can put me in my place for a low-minded little pig !" "Well?" said Mrs. Assingham, consideringly, as she paused for emphasis. "I think I shall be saved." Her friend took it, for a minute, however, by carrying thoughtful eyes, eyes verily portentous, over her head.
His eyes blinked at her uncertainly. "Hello!" he said rather feebly. "What's happened?" "I thought you were killed!" she cried unsteadily. "Oh, Tony, I thought you were killed!" He regarded her consideringly. "No," he replied seriously. "I'm not at all killed. Why should I be killed?" Then, clearer consciousness returning: "Am I talking rot? What's happened?"
His sentry-go extended the length of his two rooms, and each time he came back into his bedroom his glance fell consideringly upon a steamer-trunk of the largest size, at the foot of his bed. The trunk was partially packed as if for departure. And, indeed, it was the question of departure which he was debating.
Thus directly questioned, the unknown smiled quizzically, his hazel eyes crinkling at the corners and overflowing with good humour. "Well, you might say 'Pap," he observed consideringly, "Lots of boys and girls do call me Pap more than a thousand of 'em, now, I guess. And I'm eighty mighty near old enough to have a girl of nineteen." She looked at him in astonishment.
'Thank you, mamma, said my daughter, without a ray of suspicion. Then she added consideringly, 'Aunt Emma and Aunt Alice do seem quite elderly ladies beside you, and yet you are older than either of them aren't you? I wonder how that is. It was so innocent, so admirable, that I laughed at my own expense; while Cecily, doing her hair, considered me gravely.
"Not quite yet, you understand." "I see." In the pause that followed the mother's large eyes, surrounded by dark rings, and set rather deeply in the dusky paleness of her well-featured face, dwelt consideringly upon her daughter's round cheeks with their fair smooth skin, upon her grey-green eyes, and smooth fair hair.
Major Counsellor stood up with his back to the stove, thereby giving a view of a red, challenging face, heavy eyebrows, and a huge white droop of moustache. He looked down at Rallywood consideringly before he spoke. 'So you're here. I imagined they kept you pretty closely on the frontier. The world been kicking you? Rallywood laughed.
