He was clean-shaven, dressed pretty decently, and wore a round woollen cap with a green visor. He listened grumpily to what Roberto had to say; then he lighted a cigar and flung the match far away. Doubtless because of the exiguity of his organ, he found it necessary to stop the windows of his nose with his fingers in order to smoke.
Here they are. Very well, Hapgood. You may show them in." Even Serena's new gown, fine as it was and proud as she had been of it, lost something of its glory and sank into a modest second place when Annette appeared. Mrs. Black had dressed for the occasion. Also, she had insisted upon her husband's dressing. "What in blazes must I climb into a dress suit for?" demanded that gentleman grumpily.
Sam corrected grumpily. He was watching something on the floor I couldn't see what. "All I need is to swallow a few goldfish and I'd be a first-class aquarium." "What I think we should do," Miss Cobb said, "is to try to find out just what suits us, and stick to that. I'm always trying." "Damned trying!" Mr. Jennings snarled, and limped over for more water.
"She'll have a beastly cold in the head if she doesn't shut that window," he grumpily suggested. But his interest, too, was aroused. He stared at the girl in the mirror with an attention almost equal to Laurie's. As they looked, she suddenly stirred and moved backward, as if occultly warned of their survey.
The bundles of clothes, separately arranged the night before, had got mixed somewhat in Robert's eagerness to dress, with the result that when his brother John rose, with eyes half shut, and reached for his stockings, he found those of Robert instead lying upon his bundle. "Gie's my socks," he ordered grumpily, flinging Robert's socks into the far corner of the kitchen.
"Where shall we go?" Mary Rose paused at the corner. "You see I'm a stranger here. In Mifflin I knew the way everywhere. Aunt Kate said there was a little park over this street. Perhaps it would be pleasant there?" Mother Johnson said grumpily that it made little difference to her, all she wanted was to have her walk over and be home again.
If I'd got old Eely's watch, I could have had it under my pillow, and seen directly." "No, you couldn't," I said grumpily, for I was sleepy and cross; "it's too dark." "Well, I could have run my finger over the hands, and told by the touch. You see, I should have held the watch perfectly upright, and then the twelve would have been by the handle, and I could have told directly."
It said, "Have you really the face to come to me again with an ideal man?" "He has all the qualities that you desire," began the Shadchan, in a tone that repudiated the implications of the monosyllable. "He is young, strong, God-fearing " "Has he any money?" grumpily interrupted Eliphaz. "He will have money," replied Sugarman, unhesitatingly, "when he marries." "Ah!"
And the other, an older man, uttered grumpily: "No fear! not while the chief mate's on deck. He's that deaf he can't tell how much wind there is." And, indeed, poor P-, quite young, and a smart seaman, was very hard of hearing. At the same time, he had the name of being the very devil of a fellow for carrying on sail on a ship.
Angus paused as if to consider how to finish his sentence, and Mr Keith answered one point of his long speech, letting all the rest, go. "Is it just this once, Angus?" "I suppose you mean that night at York, when I got let in with those fellows of Greensmith's," growled Angus, more grumpily than ever. "Now, Duncan, that's not generous of you.
