Presently, as he became more used to the darkness, Peter observed that the eye was open and regarding him incuriously: and he started in some confusion. "Do you feel much pain now, old chap?" he began rather huskily. "Pain?" repeated Varney, vaguely. "No, I don't feel any pain." "No pain!
Grateful for her evident intention to waste no time, St. George dressed and drove to the Boris, punctually sending up his card at four o'clock. At once he was ushered to Mrs. Hastings' apartment. St. George entered her drawing-room incuriously.
"Well, I never saw anything like this before. Looks like hell; don't it?" said the officer. "Yes," said Mavering. "Is it uncommon?" "Well, I should say so. I guess we're going to have a picnic." Mavering thought of blueberries, but he did not say anything. "I guess it's going to be a regular circus." Mavering did not care. He asked incuriously, "How do you find your course in such weather?"
"That's what really caused the delay," she said. "What is it?" I asked incuriously. "Why, the Elsinore's piano, all renovated. When I made up my mind to come, I telegraphed Mr. Pike he's the mate, you know. He did his best. It was the fault of the piano house. And while we waited to-day I gave them a piece of my mind they'll not forget in a hurry."
"We'll tie up at Pleasantville landing and learn who he is." "He had ought to have a doctor to look at them cuts of his," said Mrs. Cavendish. It was late afternoon when the landing was reached.

He lighted a match nonchalantly, by the artfully simple method of pinching the head of it with his fingernails, leaned negligently against the wall of the bunk-house, and regarded the group incuriously while he smoked. "Any pretty girls up this way?" he inquired languidly, after a moment, fanning a thin smoke-cloud from before his face while he spoke. The Happy Family went prickly hot.
He let his unabashed gaze travel from one to another, understood perfectly what those expressionless eyes of stone were telling him, and, with a little laugh of light derision, trailed debonairly into the store. "Any mail for Larrabie Keller?" he inquired of the postmistress. The girl at the window glanced incuriously at him and turned to look.
They appeared to watch Calumet incuriously, apathetically. Calumet felt strangely jubilant. A vindictive satisfaction and delight forced the blood through his veins a little faster, for, judging from the appearance of the buildings, misfortune must have descended upon his father.
From the boat's fragmentary stern, Fedallah incuriously and mildly eyed him; the clinging crew, at the other drifting end, could not succor him; more than enough was it for them to look to themselves. For so revolvingly appalling was the White Whale's aspect, and so planetarily swift the ever-contracting circles he made, that he seemed horizontally swooping upon them.
