"But I never saw all this in the papers!" Audrey exclaimed. "No paper I mean no respectable paper would print it. Of course, we printed it in our own weekly paper." "Why wouldn't any respectable paper print it?" "Because it's not nice. Don't you see that I ought to have been at home mending stockings instead of gallivanting round with Liberal stewards and policemen and prison governors?"
Of course Roland immediately began to scrutinize them: turning them over; critically guessing at the senders; playing with them at pitch and toss anything to while away the time, and afford him some cessation from his own work. Galloway's servant entered. "Is my master in, Mr. Roland?" "Of course he's not," said Roland. "He's gone gallivanting somewhere.
"Annie," demanded "Aunt Susan," "why don't you make that aura of yours do its gallivanting in this world, looking up the needs of the oppressed, and investigating the causes of present wrongs? Then you could reveal to us workers just what we should do to put things right, and we could be about it." Mrs.
"I'm trying to overtake arrears of correspondence. Sit down and have a smoke." He tendered his case as he spoke. "Price you've got to pay for three weeks' gallivanting, I suppose?" suggested Brett, helping himself to a cigarette and lighting up. "I should hardly describe my recent absence from home as gallivanting," returned Eliot, with a brief flash of reminiscence in his eyes. "No?
In the house on Martin's Hill, everybody won. Tim Fisher objected at first to the idea of gallivanting off on a protracted honeymoon, leaving a nine-year-old daughter in the care of a ten-year-old boy. But Janet now Mrs.

"Think of going all the way to India just to plunge your arms into the spooky, foamy Ganges and 'make a wish'! 'What do you wish? asks Father, pleased-as a Chessy-puss. Humph! I wish it was the soap-suds in my own wash-tub! Or gallivanting down to British Guiana just to smell the great blowsy water-lilies in the canals! I'd rather smell burned crackers in my own cook stove!"
He felt no pique; he had enjoyed the outing in the sparkling night. In the gray dawn he again routed out Files's yawning hostler and turned the equipage over to him. "Hope you found it a starry night for a ramble," suggested the hostler, willing to be informed as to why a bank cashier had been gallivanting around over the country between days, turning in a sweating horse at break of dawn.
When he hears that I want to go gallivanting off all over the Universe with you guys, he is very likely to turn thumbs down on the whole deal. Besides, Arcot's dad has a lot of influence around here, too, and I have a healthy hunch he won't like the idea, either." "I rather fear he won't," agreed Arcot gloomily.
How his bones ached! It's no use talking, you can't make an old dog do the tricks of his puppy days. What an idiot he had been to climb that practice-mast! If he had fallen and broken his leg? Four sheep. Maybe he was too old for gallivanting, after all. Maybe he was too old for anything except just to be "mollycoddled" by thoughtful old ladies. Now, be honest with yourself, Abe.
