I felt a little nervous when I thought of going over the figures with Polly, she was such a judicious spender of money. But I knew her criticism would not be severe, for she was hand-in-glove with me in the project.
Our association begins to be rather disadvantageous to you, Val. We've had our ups and downs together, and we've got on very pleasantly, take it for all in all. But now that you're settling down as a literary man, engaged to that young woman, hand-in-glove with Philip Sheldon, and so on, I think it's time for me to take myself off.
A theory which he had formed was destroyed by that recollection. "So she was. That's right, she was there! I remember he insulted her. But I'm certain she's seen him since; I am certain she's been working hand-in-glove with him since. Who was the Jack who went to Yorkshire?" It was Crewe's turn to be nonplussed.
They were all more frightened than a giggling maiden is of the dark, when no man is with her." Then I saw my father at the end of the hall. He came towards me, clad in his black Tribunal costume.

We are here to help get the Fleet through the Dardanelles in the first instance and to help the Russians to take Constantinople in the second.
Thinks I, 'tis what their Worships will have been keepin' for private use, between whiles. Or elst " "Or else?" "Or else maybe we've tapped a private cellar." Lord Rattley slapped his thigh.

We all knew he meant himself, and we knew also that so far as money went he spoke true; that though hand-in-glove with Bigot, he was poor, save for what he made at the gaming-table and got from France.
One minute it seemed patent beyond dispute that the girl and the great plunderer were hand-in-glove; the next minute Maitland was positively assured that their recent meeting had been altogether an accident.
