"Your card, sir." Kerry revealed his teeth in a savage smile and tossed his card on to the desk before the concierge. He passed on, mounting the stairs at the end of the passage. Dimly a bell rang; and on the first landing Kerry met a heavily built foreign gentleman, who bowed. "My dear Chief Inspector," he said gutturally, "what is this, please? I trust nothing is wrong, eh?"
" His tone was full of regret, with sort of poetic regret. For a moment the professor looked at him blankly, and then gradually recovered part of his usual manner. " Yes," he said sadly, " there is nothing for it but to go on." At a word from the dragoman, the two impatient drivers spoke gutturally to their horses and the car- riages whirled out of Arta.
"Alee same bletter stay sleep him off," advised Foo Sen. Jimmie Dale succeeded in sitting upright on the edge of the bunk and snarled at the other. "You mind your own business, Foo Sen!" he flung out gutturally. "Goin' home! Tell 'em to help me out sleep where I like! Makes me sick here rotten smell rotten punk sticks!"
Indian Chief," he exclaimed, in tremulous accents, "don't kill me! I I ain't ready to die!" The Indian looked amazed, and laughed gutturally, but did not speak. His laugh increased Henry's dismay. "I've got a revolver. I'll give it to you if you won't kill me," continued Henry. Then the Indian spoke.
My name is Blood Captain Peter Blood, and this is my ship the Arabella, all very much at your service. "Blood!" shrilled the little man. "O 'Sblood! A pirate!" He swung to the Colossus who followed him "A damned pirate, van der Kuylen. Rend my vitals, but we're come from Scylla to Charybdis." "So?" said the other gutturally, and again, "So?" Then the humour of it took him, and he yielded to it.
Geisler muttered gutturally. "The insurrectos!" exclaimed Mr. Merrill. "Are they near at hand?" "They were," rejoined Bob Harding, secretly rejoicing to see how well his plan was working, "but they are now in retreat. The government troops met them near San Angelo, and drove them back to the west." "I had no idea there were any government troops closer than Rosario."
Swiftly, almost gutturally, Hogarty sketched it all out: Young Denny's calm statement of his errand, his own groundless burst of spleen, and the outcome of the try-out which had sent him hurrying back to Denny's dressing-room with many questions on his tongue's tip and a living hope in his brain which he hardly dared to nurse.
Long lines of djins pass by, dragging as fast as their naked legs can carry them, the crew of the Triomphante, who are shouting and fanning themselves. The "Marseillaise" is heard everywhere; English sailors are singing it, gutturally with a dull and slow cadence like their own "God Save."
A voice in front called, 'Karl Schicker'; a nearer voice, that of the man whose footsteps I had heard approaching, took it up and called 'Karl Schicker': I, too, took it up, and, turning my back, called 'Karl Schicker' as gruffly and gutturally as I could.
Yes, the star was coming coming fast. "Abdullah!" he called in his high-pitched voice. "Chud! Come, see the star!" Together they watched it sweep onward. "By Allah! That is no star!" suddenly cried Abdullah. "It is an air-flying fire chariot! I can see it with my eyes black, and spouting flames from behind." "Black," echoed Chud gutturally. "Black and round! Oh, Allah!"
