Singing snatches of song, two sailors passed on the sidewalk, just at the head of the alleyway. "Look what's coming," roared one, goodnaturedly, catching at his mate's hand. Thus, halted, they formed an effective barrier of brawn in the way of the first runner. "Let me through! That wretch wants to kill me!" gasped Miller. "We won't let him," replied one of the sailors, reassuringly. "Hold him!
Bert goodnaturedly started ahead to speak to the principal, who was talking with some of the teachers, planning games for the little folk. Flossie and Freddie were patting their pet, when Danny Rugg, and one of his friends came along. "That dog can't come to our picnic!" said Danny, with a scowl. "He might bite some of us." "Snap never bites!" cried Freddie. "Of course not," said Flossie.
When Annadoah passed from her tent into her new home the women scolded her bitterly. The men goodnaturedly jeered Ootah. Annadoah huddled near Ootah and gazed gratefully into his eyes. In the thought that he was there to protect her the heart of Ootah pulsed with joy. Annadoah's heart was cold. Annadoah sat inside the new little house of snow, the oil lights flickering fitfully.
Just then there came along two large boys, Frank Cobb, and his particular chum, Irving Knight. "What's going on here; a race?" asked Frank. "It looks that way," said Irving. "Oh, will you push us off?" begged Bert, appealing to Frank, whose father worked in Mr. Bobbsey's lumber yard. "Sure we will," answered Frank goodnaturedly.
I'll write you a cheque this instant, said Maulevrier goodnaturedly; but while he was writing the cheque he took occasion to remonstrate with Lesbia on the foolishness of card playing. 'I am obliged to do as Lady Kirkbank does, she answered feebly. 'If I were to refuse to play it would be a kind of reproach to her.
Well, you really are the bravest laddie I ever knew! I should almost think you might be sent out to fight a trussed chicken, if you had a stick in your hand!" Lasse went on laughing, and shook the boy goodnaturedly. But Pelle was ready to sink into the ground with shame. Down by the custom-house they met a bailiff who had come too late for the steamer and had engaged no laborers.
And he rather vexed his inconsistent wife by adding hardily, "Remember that my top figure is ten thousand, Rogers, will you?" "Now, you wait and see what I have to show you, and then we'll talk turkey," the other man said goodnaturedly. Anne, sitting on her mother's lap beside him, gave him a sudden smile at the word she recognized.
Not even so was Baillie comfortable; and on the 4th of August he definitively gave in his resignation. Goodnaturedly he did so, but unfortunately for himself.
He chatted with the children at the breakfast table, goodnaturedly, but said little to his wife, who had penetration enough to see that he was hiding his real feelings under an assumed exterior. "Are you going to be home to dinner to-day?" said Mr. Uhler, carelessly, as he arose from the table. He had only sipped part of a cup of bad coffee. "Certainly I am," was the rather sharp reply.
"That's so," said Hallheimer goodnaturedly, "she did come first." "After I've done with this, or not at all," said the smith, loosening the shoe from the gray's foot. The woman scolded and swore. "What kind of behavior is that! Do you think I have stolen my time? Are you going to let me take my turn or not?"
