"Suppose Coleman hears about it; he'll seize them on the bay." "Then he'll commit an act of 'piracy'," Baker said, explosively. Terry took his feet from the table, rose. "By God!" he exclaimed, "there's an idea! Piracy! A capital offense!" He crammed his hands into his pockets and strode heavily up and down. "Coleman's not likely to hear of our sending these arms," said the Governor.
The match he lit crackled explosively, and he started at the unexpected sound as one whose nerves were on edge. The pipe aglow, he still sat for a moment puffing hard. "How," he initiated then abruptly, "I wish you would do me a favour. Will you promise me?" The younger man did not hesitate, did not question. "If in my power, yes, sir," he said.
How Polly can stand their chatter, I don't see," cried Jasper impatiently. "They've been shut off from Polly for some time, you know," said Dr. Fisher quietly. "We must remember that." "Polly doesn't like some of them a bit better than I do," said Jasper explosively, "only she puts up with their nonsense."
Reddon was explosively enthusiastic over the Laundryman, whom he described as a "regular old sport," "one of the finest," "the right sort," and the climax of praise "one first-class man."
It was pure accident, she could see, why she and her child had been saved from such a lot due neither to her own ability nor that of any of her Clark forbears! It was a humbling perception. "Hell!" her cousin was saying explosively, "these people are no better 'n cattle. At least they ought to give 'em a trough to wash in and a place where they could buy decent food."
It's me what's married your darter, bain't it?" "It be, Samuel; 'e-es I d' 'low it be," returned Mrs. Pitcher, with a deprecating glance at the yeoman who was now rolling up the rug. "We all on us thought as Abel was dead, ye see." "Meanin', I suppose, as if ye knowed he was alive I shouldn't ha' had her," retorted Sam explosively.
There was, naturally, nothing I could say to that." "I should think not," Mary agreed, exhaling rather explosively an enormous cloud of smoke. "Poor Aunt Lucile!" Her commiseration didn't sound more than skin deep. "The matter rested there," the elder woman went on, "until your father received Rush's telegram that you were coming to-day.
A hurricane gust of dizzy wrath swept the woman and her voice came explosively: "Thet's a lie, Bas Rowlett! Hit'll be you thet dies with a rope on yore neck afore ye gits through not him!" "Ef I does," declared the man with equanimity, "hit won't be jest yit. I grants him full an' free right of way ter go ahead of me."
"Right!" cried Fanny, explosively; "oh, how can you say so, Mr. Jasper! Why, she is losing just every bit of the fun." "I know it," said Jasper, with a twinge at the thought. "Well, there is nothing more to be said or done, Miss Vanderburgh, since Polly has decided the matter. Only I want you to remember that I think she is just right about it."
Yet they fought as they could, and as the whirl of battle drifted aft Rogers could hear their voices. "I want to see the Captain!" they each declared explosively, whenever a moment's respite enabled them to speak, and in time the reiterated demand bore results.
