"I may stay here three or four days longer," he said meaningly, "as the earl may, at the last moment, come to an agreement as to the price of the goods. I should be sorry to return to my uncle without getting an order, for the earl has, for years, been one of our best customers." The landlord nodded. "I understand," he said.
"The sun don't shine, but it's pretty light right now at one o'clock," he went on to say, meaningly; "and I'm dead sure I could pick up some dandy pictures of the river, and also of poor old Carson, flood-bound. Bandy-legs, how about you; won't you come along with Toby and me out on the bridge?" The appeal proved to be the finishing stroke, since Bandy-legs had been balancing on the fence.

As Barbara's voice faded and died away, an air of guilty quiet settled upon the dining-room.
"Oh, Ches, don't be vexed," said Maud. "It will all be right; I have a very good wardrobe, and don't mean to let Dick buy anything for me this long while." At which Dick laughed meaningly, as much as to say: "In regard to that I shall do as I please or think best."

"Oh, tell us!" she begged.
If it was, I hope he's satisfied." Jellicoe, who was appearing in society supported by a stick, looked meaningly at Mike, and giggled, receiving in answer a stony stare. Mike had informed Jellicoe of the details of his interview with Mr. Barley at the White Boar, and Jellicoe, after a momentary splutter of wrath against the practical joker, was now in a particular lighthearted mood.

"Your friend, sir?" replied the general officer, courteously, uncovering and looking down at the bodies with interest; his practised eye immediately taking in the details of the little conflict. "He did not go to his death alone," he said meaningly. "'Fore Gad, sir, here has been a pretty fight! Your name and rank, sir?"
They write me that Buck is getting uneasy and they wish I'd come, but now" he looked meaningly at Sam "I think I ought to stay here for a little. Could you go in my place? There are things here I must attend to." Sam looked, and his face grew dark with sympathy. He understood.
