Balfour was careful, in the very crisis and agony of his fight with the National League, to disavow all sympathy with the strange being that was bringing to his assistance all the mighty resources of an Empire's army, an Empire's exchequer, and an Empire's overwhelming power to crush in blood, in the silence of the cell and the deeper silence of the tomb, all resistance to his imperious will.
"Did you sign the other circular, issued last month, to the effect that the mine was practically valueless?" "Yes, sir." Elderberry studiously examined the moldings on the cornice of the judge's canopy. "Um!" remarked the court significantly. There was a flurry among the tall hats. Then Mr. Greenbaum sprang to his feet. "If you please, Your Honor," he announced, staccato, "we entirely disavow Mr.
Calhoun wished General Jackson censured, while all his cabinet colleagues disapproved his high-handed acts and stood ready to disavow them with reparation.
Bonaparte, indeed, could not, without a degree of imprudence of which he was incapable, consent to an armistice; for M. de Giulay, though entrusted with powers from Austria, had received none from Russia.

The high-heeled, demure creatures were lost in this crowd, and Lucas and George were lost in it. "Well," said Lucas, halting on the pavement. "You're going down to the cathedral."

Washington knew our weakness so well that he could see how easy it would be for a bold and determined enemy to do us great if not fatal harm. But he did not know that the English themselves were in an almost desperate plight. By Rodney's decisive victory at sea they began to recover their ascendancy against the Coalition, but it was then too late to disavow the treaty.
* Knox, p. 380. Keith, Append, p. 164. Anderson, vol. iii. p. 194. Knox, p. 381. Elizabeth, when she found the event so much to disappoint her expectations, thought proper to disavow all connections with the Scottish malecontents, and to declare every where, that she had never given them any encouragement, nor any promise of countenance or assistance.
It was only with the emergence of the "New Negro" and the Negro Renaissance that this folk culture entered the mainstream of the art world. Previously, those Negroes who had gained enough education to participate in literary creation generally strove to join the American middle class, and tried to disavow all connections with their lower class background.
Is it not truly said, worthy son of Miltiades?" Cimon bowed his head. "General, I cannot disavow the sentiment. But if Greece entered Asia, would it not be as a river that runs into a sea? it expands, and is merged." "The river, Cimon, may lose the sweetness of its wave and take the brine of the sea.
