Davis had outgeneraled him there. There was not much force to the blow and Frank smiled. Now Davis advanced, and, feinting rapidly with both hands, placed his right against Frank's mouth. But the lad had perceived the blow coming and stepped quickly backward, breaking the force of it, and was not hurt. Before Davis could cover, the lad placed a hard right and left to Davis' nose, bringing blood.

She had set her will on escaping from my loathed presence without a "scene"; but her rage at having been outgeneraled was too fractious for her will.

His first task was to drive the British from Boston, and he had accomplished it by the following March.

Miguel envied him, but cupidity outgeneraled Cupid, and presently the conversation flagged, until a convenient recollection of Victor's that himself and comrade were due at the Posada del Toros at 10 o'clock gave them the opportunity to retire. But not without a chance shot from Carmen. "Tell to me," she said, half to Victor and half to Miguel, "what has chanced with Concho?
His father sat in an easy-chair by the kitchen stove as he entered, and a smile played upon his pale blue lips as his eyes met the glance of his loving son. "Well, Paul, did you win the race?" he asked, in feeble tones. "No, father; the Zephyrs beat. Frank Sedley rather outgeneraled Tony, and his crew were more used to pulling than we. But Frank is a first-rate fellow." "Isn't Tony?" "That he is!
"Good night and thank you," said I. So I went my way, not elated but utterly depressed, more depressed than when I won the first case in which I knew my client's opponent was in the right and had lost only because I outgeneraled his stupid lawyer.
Monk attempted to maintain a close blockade of the Dutch coast and to prevent a junction between Tromp's main fleet at Flushing and a force of thirty ships at Amsterdam.
