Until he can be moved we are only guests at the Abbey," and she looked at Morris, who added rather grumpily, by way of explanation: "Of course, Miss Layard, you have heard about the wreck of the Trondhjem, and how those foreign sailors saw the light in my workshop and brought Mr. Fregelius to the Abbey." "Oh, yes, Mr.
Don't you remember you can only get at the Mouldiestwarp by a noble deed? And wanting to find Dickie isn't noble." "No," she agreed; "but then if we could get Dickie back by doing a noble deed we'd do it like a shot, wouldn't we?" "Oh! I suppose so," said Edred grumpily; "fire away, can't you?"
She did not say anything more, which I thought a little odd, for she was generally full of mild curiosity about all strangers and sojourners in Glenboro. Presently she got up and went away from her window. Deserted even by Miss Ponsonby, I went grumpily to bed. Then Mrs. George Hubbard gave a big dance. Jerry and I were pleasantly excited.

Burns saw me come down, and addressed me grumpily: "Well, sir?" I went in. "It isn't well at all," I said. Mr. Burns, reestablished in his bed-place, was concealing his hirsute cheek in the palm of his hand. "That confounded fellow has taken away the scissors from me," were the next words he said.

He muttered something grumpily, and, discovering that his favourite pipe must have been left in his own den, he escaped from Lady Drummond for a while. As a matter of fact, his mind had been plotting mischief. He did not care so much that it was against the Dowager, if it had not been that the memory of his dead brother came in to complicate things.
Come here now, pass the cigarettes." And this her Buttons proceeded to do very grumpily. Then as a small, quiet hand pulled a lever, I felt a leap of power beneath me, the boat careened as she turned, then righted, there was a second pull on the lever, another surging leap of speed, and as we rushed out on the river now up rose her bow higher and higher, a huge white wave on either side.
