I've located the ranch where they've been taking those horses to that they stole.
He had his worries, too, and all of them bore the same name: Prince Viktor of Xochitl. He went over with Manfred Ravallo everything the captain of the Black Star could tell him. He had talked once with Viktor; the lord of Xochitl had been coldly polite and noncommittal. His subordinates had been frankly hostile.
"Now wait a minute," Blalok said. "Get the kink out of your neck and simmer down. Sure the Boss-man told us to keep an eye on you but that's not why I'm here this time." "Well?" "Douglas came back this morning." "What for?" "I don't know." Blalok's face wore the noncommittal look it always wore when he was taking liberties with the truth.
His letters were noncommittal; but Bobby says he has had his own fair share of honors. I am glad, for he deserves them." "Indeed he does," she assented heartily. "We all are so glad for him; and it is a delight to watch the odd, boyish modesty with which he accepts his own fame. He is the most unspoiled genius I have ever known." There was a short silence.

His new secretary was sitting across the desk, and it was difficult to make his responses noncommittal. "Graham!" "Yes." "Is anybody there? Can you talk?" "Not very well." "Then listen; I'll talk. I want to see you." "I'm busy all day. Sorry." "Listen, Graham, I must see you. I've something to tell you." "All right, go ahead." "It's about Rudolph.

The Major now gazed upon her immovable visage. There was neither joy nor sorrow, neither the flush of anger nor the trembling of rage, awakened by the businesslike presentment of the social facts.
"You'll know in time," was the noncommittal answer. It was a wild night; rain splashed against the windows of the car, and she could hear the wind howling above the noise of the engines. They were evidently going into the country, for now and again, by the light of the headlamps, she glimpsed hedges and trees which flashed past.
The Major's face was noncommittal. Bruce told them of his experience. "He's been seeing a ghost," declared Barney, with a laugh. "On the contrary," said the Major slowly, "I think he hasn't.

Other couples and groups were moving in the same direction, carrying with them a hubbub of laughter and fragmentary chatterings; and Alice, smiling all the time, greeted people on every side of her eagerly a little more eagerly than most of them responded while Walter nodded in a noncommittal manner to one or two, said nothing, and yawned audibly, the last resource of a person who finds himself nervous in a false situation.
The blacksmith shop was silent, closed as grimly noncommittal as a vault. You might guess whatever you pleased about its inmate; it was like trying to imagine the emotions pictured upon the face behind a smooth, black mask. Slim stopped before the closed door and listened.
