"That will carry off only a few watchmen and engineers. Mighty tough luck for them." "It can't be helped," Sullivan said ruthlessly. "You can't expect to carry through a thing of this sort without some sacrifice. All we can do is to believe that the end justifies the means. It's a case of the greatest good to the greatest number." "I suppose so." "Well, then, why hesitate?"

However that may be, he did not hesitate for a moment; he opened the iron-bound valise, took out a yellow-leather box with a patent lock, and, having opened it, flung its contents a large sealed envelope-to me, exactly as I had flung the banknotes to him.

The faithful wife was willing to witness her husband's execution, rather than have him betray the cause of Christ or break his Covenant with God. Many a martyr got his inspiration for duty from God, through his noble wife. When James Guthrie came to a difficult task, he seemed to hesitate. Great interests were involved.

He never pleaded his years in bar of any pleasure, and never pleaded them at all except when desirous of an excuse for escaping something that was disagreeable. There are subjects on which young men talk freely with each other, but on which they hesitate to speak to their elders without restraint. Sir Lionel did his best to banish any such feeling on the part of his son.

And having only these in mind, we hesitate not to say that there is now sounding upon these shores a deeper, subtler, and more universal note than is heard in any other land touched by the Atlantic Sea.

Grievous defects and errors may exist in a Christian character, which is a Christian character still.

These are, I believe, tracings. If they were your signature and mine, Walter, I shouldn't hesitate to pronounce them tracings. But there is always some slight room for doubt in these special cases where a man sits down and is in the habit of writing his signature over and over again on one stock or bond after another.

Labarre asked himself if it were not his duty to stop this poor woman, but a secret instinct bade him watch her to the end. An hour elapsed, but Françoise seemed to feel no fatigue. At the cross-roads she did not hesitate. Finally they reached the Gorge d'Outremont. In the fast gathering darkness, the place was horrible and gloomy.

Barbanchu, his hat being over his eyes, was some time in discovering the cloud above him whence the voice proceeded. "Here, up here!" called the voice, which seemed to Barbanchu celestial when he saw himself hailed by a man with a glass of champagne in his hand. Then, as he seemed to hesitate, the party above called out in chorus: "Come up! come up! There's fat to be had!"
