"I met him just now and tried to make him look at the new Guernseys, and he must have been disturbed quite a good deal when he's cross as a bear to me. He really oughtn't to be upset like that, Mr. Vane, when he comes up here to rest. I am afraid that you are rather a terrible person, although you look so nice. Won't you tell me what you did to him?" Austen was non-plussed.
"Yes," replies the second woman, "but then, how about you, dear? You are forgetting the Joneses." "So I was," answers the first woman, completely non-plussed. "How very awkward, and I can't go on Wednesday. I shall have to leave it till Thursday, now." "But I can't go Thursday," says the second woman.
For a moment Johnnie stood, thwarted and non-plussed. The insults directed toward herself made almost no impression on her, strangely as they came from Lydia Sessions's lips. She was too intent on her own purpose to care greatly. "Shade Buckheath " she began cautiously, intending only to state that Shade had taken Stoddard's car; but Lydia Sessions drew back with a scream.
I saw that when she tried to tie the ribbons of the bag. And I wondered at this, in so gentle a soul there was a hint of anger in her tones. There was an edge to her voice. That she could be angry was a surprise. And I found that she could also be obstinate. For we came to an impasse over the telephone in the next few minutes, and over something so absurd that I was non-plussed.
Tom all good humour and high spirits making the best of every thing never non-plussed never taken aback perfectly at home, whether flirting with a Lady Charlotte in her drawing-room, or crossing a grouse mountain in the highlands sufficiently well read to talk on any ordinary topic and always ready-witted enough to seem more so.
As for Lewes, though he was at the time non-plussed, quelled, he was in the outcome impressed rather by the marvellous powers of memory exhibited than by the far finer powers shown in the superhuman logic of the synthesis. One sees that Lewes entered upon the interview with a mind predisposed to criticise, to destroy.
"Won't you please take it?" begged Janice, not a little non-plussed by her position, and that Evatt should be a witness of it. "We know it belongs to you, and 't is too valuable for me to " "How know you that?" questioned the man, still smiling pleasantly. "Because 't was with your clothes when you went in swimming," said Janice, frankly.
He talked, undertaking to let his conversation drift towards the matter of our indebtedness. Finally I got the floor, and talked at lightning speed, paying him so many compliments, in the presence of his guests, that he was completely non-plussed, and at a loss to know how to act.
Carton has gone for the day," hanging it up again with a bang. "Call up the Record now," advised Craig, disconnecting the recording instrument he had brought. "See what the editor has to say." "This is the District Attorney's office," said Carton a moment later when he got the number. "You just called me." "I called you?" asked the editor, non-plussed. "About a rumour current in Wall Street."
"I met him just now and tried to make him look at the new Guernseys, and he must have been disturbed quite a good deal when he's cross as a bear to me. He really oughtn't to be upset like that, Mr. Vane, when he comes up here to rest. I am afraid that you are rather a terrible person, although you look so nice.
