Bat drew his fore-finger along the map. "Along the red line, here: just to the trail through the canyon." "Good: now what about the timber claim along the Gully? That's in the Forests, Brydges. I want to force a contest on that; the Swede fellow has cut the logs under his permit; but I'd like to make that doubly sure before we go to trial.
One would think, too, that, as since the beginning of the world almost, the tide of emigration has been setting west, the needle would point that way; whereas, it is forever pointing its fixed fore-finger toward the Pole, where there are few inducements to attract a sailor, unless it be plenty of ice for mint-juleps.
"I had it from a party who was an old chum of Bulstrode's. I'll tell you where I first picked him up," said Bambridge, with a sudden gesture of his fore-finger. "He was at Larcher's sale, but I knew nothing of him then he slipped through my fingers was after Bulstrode, no doubt. He tells me he can tap Bulstrode to any amount, knows all his secrets.
Nick, now, raised his right hand, showing all the fingers and the thumb, at each exhibition, four several times. Then he raised it once, showing only the fore-finger and thumb. "This makes twenty-two, Nick Do you include yourself in the number?" "Wyandotté, a Tuscarora he count Mohawks" "True Are there any other red-men among them?" "Oneida, so" holding up four fingers only.
I'll tell you what I'll do, when I go back to Cleveland on my next trip I'll look and see if that fore-finger is off."

Hicok, with steadiness: “Reconcile the foreknowledge and the fore-ordination of God with the free will of man?” “I thought so, of course,” remarked the other.

The reconciliation is your own conscience, doctor!
Nevertheless, the very terms of her "reproof prevented him from asking what he should have asked the prosperity of her night since the boudoir cap had been left upon his sleeping porch. He shut the pamphlet on his right fore-finger, at the place he intended to resume, and added his right arm to his left about her. "Oh!" she cried. "Oh! Oh! Listen!" From without came the flute-calls of quail.
So there sat the little king in his carriage: he had short legs and huge swagger mustaches and a very big bump of philoprogeniture. The town was all done up, in spite of the rain. And down either side of the wide street were hasty statues of large, well-fleshed ladies, each one holding up a fore-finger. We don't know what the king thought. But the staff held their breath.
"One who can write speeches." "I'll fetch him in now, eh, Casaubon?" said Mr. Brooke. "He wouldn't come in till I had announced him, you know. And we'll go down and look at the picture. There you are to the life: a deep subtle sort of thinker with his fore-finger on the page, while Saint Bonaventure or somebody else, rather fat and florid, is looking up at the Trinity.
"'I see you perfectly well, replied the king. "'Permit me, however, rejoined one of the Shadows; and as he spoke, he approached the king, and lifting a dark fore-finger, drew it lightly, but carefully, across the ridge of his forehead, from temple to temple. The king felt the soft gliding touch go, like water, into every hollow, and over the top of every height of that mountain-chain of thought.
