Macdonald shut his eyes wearily, but his incredulous voice had suggested a world of innuendo. The young woman stood with her gloves crushed tight in both hands. It was her nature to be always a partisan. Without any reserve she was for Gordon in this new fight upon him. What had Wally Selfridge been saying to Macdonald?
She had proof of the one; the other was mainly negative, in so far as practical results were concerned. "Who are to be there?" she asked, as soon as she could trust her voice to be properly inexpressive. "Austin, and Tom Forbes, and Lloyd Avalons, and two or three men you don't know, and Thayer." "Mr. Thayer?" Her accent was incredulous. "Certainly. Why not?"
"I don't understand," he muttered. "Don't you?" She drew a littler nearer him, and the face she lifted to his was very white. But her eyes were shining. "That night when I fell from the car I I wasn't unconscious." For an instant he stared at her, incredulous.
As they sent him incredulous glances over their shoulders, he further explained his will by a gesture; and they fell away, murmuring, the swords gliding like bright serpents back to their holes. Then he made another sign, this time to the stranger. "We will accept your greeting now, Englishman, even though you have been hindered in the giving of it," he said politely.
I pack up my sack, pay her for my stay, and end up by saying I'd like to make an exchange; my sewing-machine for Olga's picture there. The woman incredulous as ever. Never mind, say I; if she was content, why, so was I. The picture was of value; I knew what I was doing.
"No, no, one of them is really Mama's and the other well, it was lent to me. It's not mine. I simply promised to wear it for a few months." Jeers and incredulous laughter followed this statement. "We only hope you'll hold out to the end, Jessie," remarked Katherine in tones of reproach. "What, leave dear old Wellington and all of you for any ordinary, stupid man?
Intensely interesting this, an important fact it would seem for the future historian. But, will the Record please quote its authority? The historian is still incredulous. All this "was well known to those who were informed," etc., undoubtedly, but who were these persons? Will the Record cite the name of one living man thus informed?
Some of the cattlemen were incredulous, but Blaze maintained his point with emphasis. "It's true. They're a grave disappointment to every kind of parasite." But Alaire had not confined her efforts to cattle; she had improved the breed of "Box A" horses, too, and hand in hand with this work she had carried on a series of agricultural experiments.
The girl gave him an incredulous stare, then reddening, the muscles on her full neck standing out, she ran like a hare back to her companions. Evidently he had made an impression. The honest folk about him who witnessed the little encounter fairly brimmed over with gossip. The stout basso moved slowly to Krayne, who braced himself for trouble.
He looked at her again with a mixture of incredulous and tender interest, but her face did not belie her words, strange as they sounded from so young and in general so bright-seeming a creature. "There shall no evil happen to the just," he said, presently, and with great sympathy. Fleda flashed a look of gratitude at him it was no more, for she felt her eyes watering, and turned them away.
