"Hello, youngster, what's your name?" Rubbing my lame shoulder, I said, "Well it might be Jones and it might be Smith, but it ain't, and I don't know what affair it is of yours, any way." "Oh! come now, boy, don't get huffy. You've got an honest face and appear to be in trouble. What is it? Out with it. You're evidently a tenderfoot and this hell-hole of vice isn't a place for a boy of your years.
She had made her escape on the plea of early hours for the children, leaving Molly behind her, just as the boisterous song was beginning in which Jack kisses Bet, Joe kisses Sue, Tom kisses Nan, &c. down to poor Dorothy Draggletail, who is left in the lurch. The farewell had been huffy. "A good evening to you, madam; I am sorry our entertainment was not more to your taste."
The roof leaked rain in the summer and the snow druv in in winter. My bed was a straw tick on the floor. You won't find me a mite huffy about where I sleep." The manse garret was a long, low, shadowy place, with one gable end partitioned off.
She had a little time at least, and then, perhaps, everything would come out all right, after all. Drouet had gone, but what of it? He did not seem seriously angry. He only acted as if he were huffy. He would come back of course he would. There was his cane in the corner. Here was one of his collars. He had left his light overcoat in the wardrobe.
I came home hating you. I didn't come to see you. I came for money. And that's all. The whole thing's hopeless." "It was my fault this time, Louis. I went to bed and left you. If I'd not been so proud and so huffy I'd have kept you." "Yes, but only for a time, dear. I saw it all in a flash to-night when you lay there and I thought you were dead.
And we left the bird and the train both behind, 'WAY behind, and done it easy, too. But Tom he was huffy, and said me and Jim was a couple of ignorant blatherskites, and then he says: "Suppose there's a brown calf and a big brown dog, and an artist is making a picture of them. What is the MAIN thing that that artist has got to do?
"Lookit here, boys," he said earnestly, "that ther big mag'strate him as you call Gully is that his real name? Wher does he come from? What countryman is he?" "English!" answered Yorke shortly. "Why? D'ye think an Englishman has to run around with a blooming alias?" "Well, now, yu' needn't go t' git huffy with a man!" expostulated Moran, with an injured air.
I didn't care much what he said about me, and I suppose there was some reason for his criticism; I should not have gone outside the inlet without more than just a bite of luncheon in the cuddy. But when he referred to my bonnie sloop as "an old tub" and said it wasn't rigged right and that I didn't know how to sail her, then well, I leave it to you if it wouldn't have made you huffy?
The Mater sprinted round the village trying to fill up her empty programme but all her stars were huffy because they hadn't been asked before, and they said they had colds or they wanted to go to their grandmothers' funerals, or some such excuse. Back comes the Mater almost in tears and says she really doesn't know whatever she's going to do about it, and there never was such a fiasco, etc.
That was a bully jump the best you've made. You didn't miss me more than ten feet that time. I don't like to be disrespectful, you know, but you are an exceedingly rough looking dog. Don't get huffy about it, old fellow, but you have the ugliest mouth I ever saw. Yes, you miserable cur, politeness at last ceases to be a virtue with me. If I had you up here I'd punch your face for you, too.
