A tendency to forgo the consideration of the immediate issues and to hark back in thought to 1870 or even to the Wars of Liberation.
It was this chance of dispute which Gust preferred to forgo. But now that the work was done the Swede aspired to the position of highest command among the mutineers. He had even gone so far as to appropriate and wear certain articles belonging to the murdered captain of the Cowrie articles of apparel which bore upon them the badges and insignia of authority.

Ridgeway that his Lordship might be expected, with reasonable propriety, to unmask a jealous streak in addition to other disagreeable traits. The British subalterns probably knew the temper of the old diplomat's mind, which, in a degree, explains their readiness to forgo the pleasure of a mild flirtation with her Ladyship.
Even if they both knew this to be a lovely rosy joke aide-de-camp of romance, which even the most practical American woman will not forgo Mary had been wise in telling him the truth. The only time women do at all well in fibbing is to each other. Besides, there is a vast difference between fibs and rosy jokes! Steve had earned this, therefore it would be his for all time.
