Occasionally at Upper House Court, politics were introduced, and Arbuthnot, a staunch Liberal in a shire of Tories, was sometimes rallied upon his opinions by the Conservative Burton and Payne. He took it all, however, as he took everything else, good humouredly, and even made some amiable attempts to convert his opponents. "His Radicalism," says Mr.
"I must trouble you all for your names and addresses, if you please," he announced quietly. The two girls stared at him, dumbfounded. Granet, however, remained perfectly at his ease. He laid down the telescope and scrutinised the newcomer. "I really don't altogether see," he remarked good humouredly, "why I should give my name and address to a perfect stranger just because he asks for it."
"We English," Schomberg said, identifying himself good humouredly with the people of the country which had adopted him, "we English have stomach enough for fighting. It is a pity that we are not as fond of some other parts of a soldier's business." The alarm proved false: the Duke's army departed unmolested: but the highway along which he retired presented a piteous and hideous spectacle.
Did you make it up on the spot or did it take you long to think it out?" Lulworth smiled good humouredly. "Oh, it's not an original lie," he replied.

"I suppose," he said good humouredly, "that your instinct brought you this message?" "Instinct?" repeated Dan blankly, "I dunno." Calder grew serious. "We'll take a chance that you may be right.

"Yes, I think you're right." "Is Nongkai next?" "It's the next stop the last stop. Are we friends now?" he asked Nawin of the Thais who chuckled good humouredly in reply as if the earlier retort of surly silence had been from some other self.
The crowd surges to and fro, past the little tables, occasionally toppling over a chair or two in the crush, moving up or down the great boulevards, one procession going to the right, in the direction of the Church of the Madeleine, the other to the left heading toward the historic Bastille, both really going nowhere in particular, but ambling gently and good humouredly along enjoying the sights and life!
