Some of the swine, not intended for market, would have more liberty; but close confinement in clean pens and small runs was to be the rule.

The ordinary diseases that come from damp and draughts could be fended off by carefully constructed buildings.
More than, once Livius offered aid, seeking to apprise himself of the supposed mute's line of investigation; but the other smilingly fended him off. At the end of four days, Average Jones had satisfied himself that if Livius were seeking anything in particular, he had an indefinite task before him, for the colonel's bound treasures were in indescribable confusion.
It was the "simple country wedding" to which guests are convoyed in special trains, and from which the hordes of the uninvited have to be fended off by the intervention of the police.
"Tell me no more, now, Darling Alixe," murmured Nadine, "I must have peace even in this moment of happiness!" Her thoughts went back to the day when Harry Hardwicke had ridden "Garibaldi" straight to the rescue, in her moment of deadly peril, and his saber had fended off the huge cobra.

"Heave to!" A deep voice above him spoke. Kit looked up. A man, leaning over the side, was watching him bump stern-wards with a sardonic grin. "Bye-bye," he murmured deeply.
