It seems she knew all about our little fracas she had got the whole story out of old Peter and was full of the sweetest regrets. She even begged my pardon the darling! for having been so rude to me the night of our first encounter. I think she is now awake to the imprudence of her conduct, and most anxious for it not to be known, instead of being defiant, as she was at the time.
At nineteen he was apprenticed to Edmund Hambley, maltster, of Liskeard, who five years later, in his official capacity as Constable of the Hundred of Liskeard, was to be publicly defied and twice knocked down by his insubordinate apprentice. A trifling affair in itself, this village fracas was to have a lasting effect upon the career of Thomas Borrow.
Without relating to any one this discovery of his Josephine's frailties, Napoleon, after a violent connubial fracas and reprimand, and after a solitary confinement of her for six days, gave immediate orders to have the chapels of the Tuileries and of St.
I started to my feet and saw Jim lying motionless just outside the swaying crowd, which had now closed about the murderer. At that instant Andrews fired again, and Hans, who had tried to use his knife, staggered out of the group and fell dead. Three of the Sovereign's own men who had intended going back with us were now in the fracas also, and as I started in two more joined.
If you have any advice to give me, sir, pray speak plainly." "With all my soul. I ask you, then, to play with some moderation. I ask you to avoid any entanglement with women. I ask you to withdraw yourself, as soon as possible, from those blusterers for French liberty or rather French license, robbery, and assassination I tell you there is going to be a fierce national fracas on the subject.
You're the right sort inside; just as soon as this fracas is over, when you know that we were right and that all this is a put-up job on you, your friend Trevors playing you for a sucker and getting Miss Sanford out of the way, you'll say we were right and I know it." "That so?" snapped Hampton. "You just start now and keep going, Bud Lee, if you don't want to do time in the jug."
"He's been shot," chorused the boys and the Rangers together. "Any of the rest of you kiddies been wounded in the fracas?" demanded Folly. "No, but you've overlooked two of us," announced Ned stepping out. "We haven't had our baths yet and I reckon we need them." Without a word, two of the Rangers got up and threw the two remaining boys into the pool.
That idea of picking a song to identify me with and bribing the orchestra leaders to swing into it whenever I enter some restaurant or nightclub, might have its advantages. Getting me all sorts of Telly interviews, between fracases, and all those write-ups in the fracas buff magazines, I can see the need for, in spite of what it's costing.
Why, Lena, you couldn't wear his stuff anyway, after all this fracas. It will do to trim a Christmas tree." But Lena, with angry face, tapped the floor nervously with her gaudy small slipper, and made no reply to her husband's hilarity. Even to her slow-working mind it was evident that she had paid a high price for some worthless bits of glass. This conferring of a favor was indeed a bond.
Her head was thrown well back, in obvious defiance of the social conventions, which should have forbidden a fracas in Lady Blakeney's hospitable house, and her fingers provocatively toyed with the diamond necklace which glittered and sparkled round her throat.
