A sort of grimace, which ought to be a smile, was addressed to the wizard, who drew the queen on with rapid steps, while the crowd rushed after him. This time it was toward Alvez's establishment that the sorcerer directed his steps. He soon reached the door, which was shut. A simple blow from his shoulder threw it to the ground, and he led the conquered queen into the interior of the factory.
"How near did you get, old man? Come on, now, no bluffing; did the Gray Seal ever even recognise you as a factor in the hare-and-hound game?" "You're flicking on the raw, Jimmie," Carruthers answered, with a wry grimace. "He knew me, all right, confound him!
They passed the place where Bart had so nearly met his death through the treacherous attack of his captive. "Here's where you nearly went West," remarked Tom. "Don't talk of it," objected Bart with a grimace. "It makes the chills creep over me to think of it. I could stand being knifed in a square fight, but I'd hate to get it the way that fellow meant that I should."
She drew back from him. "I will do whatever you wish," she said again nervously. "You know that." "Yes, I know that," said Saltash with his quick grimace. "You have my sympathy, Nonette. Now go, ma chère, go!" She went from his presence like a small hunted animal. Saltash shrugged his shoulders and sauntered down again to the vestibule. The crowd had grown.
"Very well. I'll keep you," Saltash said. "Did anyone see you come aboard?" "No, my lord." "Then you came with me, see? I brought you if anyone wants to know." "Very good, my lord. Thank you, my lord." Saltash made a humorous grimace. "You can call me 'sir' if you like," he said. "It makes no difference." "Thank you, sir," said Toby with a responsive grin. "And your name is Toby, is it?

In his public speaking, he gesticulated incessantly, and in the difficulty he had in pouring out his words as rapidly as the thoughts came to him, he seemed sometimes almost to grimace; but this was natural, not studied. And so I can easily understand what some one tells me who saw him almost daily as President in the White House.
"Selingman is down-stairs," he announced. "I rather expected I should see something of him as I didn't go to the club this afternoon. You won't mind if he comes up?" "The man is a nuisance," Anna declared, with a little grimace. "I was perfectly happy, Francis, sitting here before the open window and looking out at the lights in that cool, violet gulf of darkness.
As she brought him into the sitting-room she made a comical grimace at Anne over his shoulder. Ludovic smiled pleasantly at Anne. He liked her; she was the only young girl he knew, for he generally avoided young girls they made him feel awkward and out of place. But Anne did not affect him in this fashion.
"And what, then, has brought you back into this realm, my hero, my troubadour?" inquired Mr. Kecskerey. "Some love-adventure, some notable affair, I'll be bound. I'll dare to guess that you have abducted some Hindu vestal from Budhur?" "Answer me first of all; is there still any rumour abroad about my former affair?" Kecskerey made an angry grimace.
