Have a drink of your own whisky I'll join you and let us go down to the saloon for a gentle flutter." He helped himself to the spirit and poured out a glass for his companion. They silently drank, and then Lablache coughed, spat and lit his pipe. He fumbled his hat on to his head and moved to the door. "Come on, then," he said gutturally. And John Allandale followed him out.
I hate this city more and more, although I see little of it. You do not know with what delight I anticipate a summer in Wales, and I hope to spend the summer of the next year there, and to talk Welsh most gutturally. I shall see Meirion this week, whose real name is William Owen. He is the author of the new Welsh dictionary, a man of uncommon erudition, and who ought to esteem me for Madoc's sake.
She found her voice, a hoarse, infantile wheeze. "Tum out'n chist!" she exclaimed, gutturally. "Tum out'n chist!" Rufe turned his tow-head slowly, that he might not disturb the poise of the lid of the chest resting upon it. He fixed a solemn stare on Tennessee, and drawing one hand from the depths of the chest, he silently shook his fist. And then he resumed his researches.
Ah, I fix you!" and with a savage snarl the giant, in the concrete chamber below, could be heard to attack someone who cried out gutturally in German: "Help! Help! Help!" "Come on, Ned!" cried Tom, making a dash for the stairs that led into the magazine. There was confusion all about, but through it all the wireless operator continued to write down the message coming to him through space.
Now and again there was an expression of keen interest on their stolid faces, and more than once when woe befell the effort to ploy the battalion into double column to form square and the movement became a contortion, they laughed out gutturally that rare Indian mirth not altogether pleasant to hear.
"Ketchum Squaw-talk-far-off," he explained gutturally. Good Indian took the envelope, thinking it must be a telegram, though he could not imagine who would be sending him one. His name was written plainly upon the outside, and within was a short note scrawled upon a telegraph form: "Come up as soon as you possibly can. I've something to tell you." That was what she had written.
"The opinion of a dead lackey does not amount to much," gutturally observed Barbemouche. Doubtless I should have felt the point of his rapier between my shoulders but that he waited on the will of De Berquin. His tone showed that he really had the high regard for his looks that De Berquin's words had implied.
He spent some moments in imagining the MacBus, child of a sterner race, which would run gutturally without skids, and wear a different cut of bonnet. He dismounted into a faint yellow fog diluted with a faint twilight, in the Brown Borough. The air was vague, making it not so much an impossibility to decipher the features of people approaching as a surprise to find it possible.
As the tremendous light-play of the Eastern sunsets faded away, we would gather in little groups in the courtyard of our mosque its minaret towering black against a turquoise sky and talk fitfully of the little happenings of the day, while the Arabs murmured gutturally around us. Occasionally, one of them would burst into a quavering, hot-blooded tribal love-song.
The conventional old Colonel committed a very deplorable breach of etiquette he snickered; but twisted it into a lusty cough, gutturally explaining: "Really, my cold!" "Mr. McElroy," she turned severely to Jane, "has been blaspheming blaspheming the traditions of our noble heroes! My dear, it is positively disgusting!"
