A very serious economic disturbance was crippling the whole trade of the country, and made some persons happily very few in number believe for a short time that independence, or annexation to the neighbouring republic, was preferable to continued connection with a country which so grudgingly conceded political rights to the colony, and so ruthlessly overturned the commercial system on which the province had been so long dependent.
They made it a sort of personal appeal, and a test of personal friendship to themselves, so grudgingly the contemplated visit to the theatre was abandoned, and we resigned ourselves to six more hours inside the over-familiar building. Sir William Hart-Dyke had been Chief Conservative Whip in the 1868-1873 Parliament.
Then, without answering, she reached for her hat and was about to go silently on her way, when something in Marjorie's gracious words seemed to touch her and she said, grudgingly, "I remember you." "That's nice," beamed Marjorie. "I was afraid you wouldn't. Let me tell you about my chum." She launched forth in an enthusiastic description of Mary Raymond and of their long friendship.
And occasionally, despite a resentment that fate should have dealt thus inconsiderately with the family, Janet felt pity welling within her. After supper, when Lise had departed with her best young man, Hannah would occasionally, though grudgingly, permit Janet to help her with the dishes. "You work all day, you have a right to rest."
"You saw our young captain come up while I was with the 'Pollard' down on the bottom, didn't you?" inquired the yard's owner. "Yes," admitted Mr. Melville, grudgingly, while Don half scowled, then turned his head away. "But how is the thing done?"

Then he added grudgingly, "That was as fine a job of control-deck operations as I've seen. Keep up the good work, spaceman." Tom gulped. The unexpected compliment caught him off guard. And he was even more pleased that for the first time Connel had referred to him as spaceman! "I'll be needed at the space station commander's quarters for a while, Corbett," said Connel.
Again he displayed his rows of teeth. "Ladies first is my motto; an' heiresses " "You haven't paid me for the corn or butter yet," cut in Lucy impatiently.

For a second time Elias took from an infinitesimal crack in his money drawer another handful of change which he grudgingly counted into the girl's extended hand.
Abnormally, crushed under the burden of androcentric scorn and prejudice, we have labor grudgingly produced under pressure of necessity; labor of slaves under fear of the whip, or of wage-slaves, one step higher, under fear of want. Long ages wherein hunting and fighting were the only manly occupations, have left their heavy impress.
'Ah, DO get us the monkey, and then you'll see some lovely magic. Do there's a nice, kind soldier. 'I don't know where they've put your precious monkey, but if I can get another chap to take on my duty here I'll see what I can do, he said grudgingly, and went out. 'Do you mean, said Robert, 'that we're going off without even TRYING for the other half of the Amulet?
Blücher's army was stationed amidst hilly country deeply furrowed by the valleys of the Katzbach and the "raging Neisse."
