They were so bitter about Britain and all her works that I gathered they were getting pretty panicky, and that made me as jolly as a sandboy. I'm afraid I was not free from bitterness myself on that subject. I said things about my own country that I sometimes wake in the night and sweat to think of. Gaudian got on to the use of water power in war, and that gave me a chance.
From the serene frugal household of Roper Ellwell where the wife had fitted boys "in the classical tongues" for Camberton, the family had come to this uncertain state, feverish, like the fickle fluctuations of the stock market; now prodigal and easy, again in a panicky distress with dire fear of unknown depths of poverty and humiliation.
"Did you induce him to give the right answer?" "Almost," says I. "Had him panicky inside of three minutes." "And then?" asks Mr. Robert. "I overdid the act," says I. "Talked too much. He's coming." Mr. Robert shrugs his shoulders. "Serves Bruce right," says he. "I wonder, though, how Louise will take it." For a couple of days she took it hard.
"All we need is roads an' aqueducts an' some day they'll come." "Perhaps," admitted the younger man. "The question is how many can hold out till then?" Tom Burton looked up and for an instant his eyes blazed. "Well, for one, I can! By God, I don't mean to be run away from my home by a panicky notion of hard times.
Every house and lodging in Millsborough was full, prices had gone up badly, and life in Millsborough was becoming extremely uncomfortable for its normal inhabitants "all along o' these panicky aliens!" thought the ticket-collector, resentfully, as he looked at the tall man.
A panicky inclination to fly back to the temple came over her. In her heart welled a feeling of resentment. Had he any right to forget what she had done for him? He heard her, turned swiftly, and trembled in every joint. They were but a few paces apart and she was looking unwaveringly into his eyes.
By the way, why did you come?" "Your ticker isn't silent out there. It's not your custom to be uninformed." It was Malone who spoke. "You know that the floor is seething and why!" "I know that the market opened quiet and that later Coal Tars broke and there is a flurry a panicky feeling perhaps. It doesn't surprise me." For an instant Malone regarded his former protegé across the table.
I was compelled to report this alarming situation to Ogilvy and Dickinson and a few chosen members of a panicky board of directors. "It's that damned Grannis crowd," said Dickinson, mentioning an aggressive gentleman who had migrated from Chicago to Wall Street some five years before in a pink collar.
The damage done is ridiculously small; the percentage of deaths and injuries insignificant. There exists, in every large city, a riffraff to get panicky: these are mostly foreigners; they seek the Tubes, and some the crypt of St. Paul's, for it is wise to get under shelter during the brief period of the raids, and most citizens obey the warnings of the police.
We were fighting then and I am a fairly good athlete. I broke out of a clinch and hit him pretty hard. He reached into his pocket and pulled a revolver. I managed to grab his hand before he could fire. I got it from him, and as I jerked it away it went off. He fell "I was afraid then panicky. I felt his body and realized that he was dead.
