But it was too late now, and at a little before seven o'clock, the vessel, which rejoiced in the name of the Black Polly, left the harbor, and steamed fussily down the Humber in the teeth of a sudden storm of sleet and snow. Her departure had no interest for any one save Friedhof, who stood watching her till she was no more than a speck on the turbid water.
We've grafted a dollar whenever we saw one that had a surplus look to it. But we never went after the simoleon in the toe of the sock under the loose brick in the corner of the kitchen hearth. There's an old saying you may have heard 'fussily decency averni' which means it's an easy slide from the street faker's dry goods box to a desk in Wall Street.
"The lady asked me to come up to the Falls and see her," he said softly. "I'm going. The rest of you can take the same train, I reckon she won't stop you from it, and I won't. And who's to stop you from filing? The land's there, open for settlement. At least it was open, day before yesterday." "Well, by golly, the sooner we go the better," Slim declared fussily. "That fencin' kin wait.
I see them fussily crawling on the surface of the combs, curving their necks from side to side and taking stock of the cells. This one does not suit, nor that one either; the bristly creature passes on, still in search, thrusting its pointed fore part now here, now there. This time, the cell appears to fulfil the requisite conditions.
"There, there, there," the old man put in fussily. "Aksinya, don't make such an outcry, my girl.... She is crying, it is only natural... her child is dead...." "'It's only natural," Aksinya mimicked him. "Let her stay the night here, and don't let me see a trace of her here to-morrow! 'It's only natural!..." she mimicked him again, and, laughing, she went into the shop.
His hands were raised, ready to fasten themselves on the other man's throat, when the door of the inner room was suddenly thrown open and Ignácz Goldstein's querulous voice broke the spell that hung over the two men. "Now then, my friends, now then," he said fussily as he shuffled into the room, "it is time that this respectable house should be shut up for the night.
Husbands are not given for nothing." "No. But I should have you, papa!" "Should?" "They have not yet parted us, dear papa." "What does that mean?" he asked, fussily. He was in a gentle stew already, apprehensive of a disturbance of the serenity precious to scholars by postponements of the ceremony and a prolongation of a father's worries.
I can say sincerely that I never saw human beings walk with so airy tread, and evince so fussily their sense of a greatness more than mortal, as the wife and the daughter of an amiable but not able bishop I knew in my youth, when they came to church on the Sunday morning on which the good man preached for the first time in his lawn sleeves.
"I don't know what is the matter with it," she said fussily, "but it doesn't suit me, and yet it looked so well in the hand. I wonder if I could wear it if you were to take out some of this fulness, and change the set of the sleeves? The fashions this spring are perfectly hopeless." "Why, it suits you to perfection, Madame.
It is unfortunate for me that I am so headstrong." "And now who deals in insincerity?" she asked him. "Ah, but you see, madame, it is an insincerity that does not mislead." And then M. de Kercadiou came in through the window again, and announced fussily that he must be getting back to Meudon, and that he would take his godson with him and set him down at the Rue du Hasard.
