He stalled and blocked, fought parsimoniously, and strove to gather strength.
Ellen turned white, and in a moment more she was crying softly within the shelter of her husband's arm. He sat with set lips, and eyes staring at the empty fireplace before him. Presently he spoke again, and his voice was very low, as if he could not trust it: "Aleck was game. He was the gamest chap I ever saw.
"Ain't it great?" cried Floss, straightening Miss Lucinda's hat and trying to get her to open her eyes. "Dick says you are the gamest chaperon he ever saw. Sit up and let me pin your collar straight." But Miss Lucinda's sense of direction had evidently been disturbed, for she did not yet know which was up, and which was down. She leaned limply against Floss and tried to get her breath.
I'm sure everything will come right, now." He nodded, smiling. "That's just the way I feel, Miss Valencia. They couldn't go wrong, after this that is, they couldn't go clear wrong."

Give, give, give! That's the masculine chorus the hunting-song of the human wolf-pack!" "Don't talk like that it ain't like you, kid. You were always the gamest little dame I ever knew." He essayed to take the hand that was twisted in the folds of her cloak, but she drew it away from him in a fury.

Honestly, he's the bravest, gamest person in the world. Once, a couple of years ago, Stepper noticed that he was limping, and he made him go to see the doctor.
'That lame Prouty boy' was the gamest fellow in the command and it nearly broke his heart when we marched away in earnest in sixty-one, and left him behind the leader of the home-guard. "The Rifles were armed with wooden guns, and drilled twice a week in Bert Martin's barn drilled with almost the same precision and attention to the manual as we had to do in later years.
What horror that of all days in a season this should be the one for them to make errors! But they were game, and the Rube was the gamest of all. He did not seem to know what hard luck was, or discouragement, or poor support. He kept everlastingly hammering the ball at those lucky Providence hitters. What speed he had!
