"Well, a woman like that breaks in nothing to her!" he said with scorn, straightening up. "Yes, but at a country club?" Harriet offered, placatingly, as she got into the front seat, and tucked the pongee robe snugly about the saffron-coloured gown. "I suppose so!" He got in beside her; there was a moment of backing and wrenching before they glided out smoothly on the white driveway.
"Oh, yes, I've heard of his father, and of him, too," Burke admitted, placatingly. But the girl relaxed not a whit in her attitude of offense. "Then," she went on severely, "you must see at once that you are entirely mistaken in this matter." Her blue eyes widened further as she stared accusingly at the Inspector, who betrayed evidences of perplexity, and hesitated for an answer.
"Pardon me, but the honor belongs to me," she snapped, regarding the first claimant with a fierce indignation that was returned in kind. Most of the others were too confounded for speech, but Mrs. Morton rose to support her candidate's claims. "Pray pardon me," she began placatingly, "but probably Mrs. Flynn does not understand.
When you've put in fourteen months in hell like I did, you won't go around peddling the brand of hot air you've shot into me, just now." "I didn't know you were a returned man," the sergeant said placatingly. A pointed barb of resentment had crept into the other's tone as he spoke. "Well, I am," the other snapped. "And I'd advise you to get a new line of talk. Don't talk to me, anyway. Beat it.
"You aren't angry, are you, Aunt Phoebe?" she coaxed. "You you know you said you wanted me to be par-TIC-ularly nice to Grant!" "Great grief, child! You needn't choke me to death. Of course I'm not angry." But Phoebe's eyes did not brighten. "You look angry," Evadna pouted, and kissed her placatingly. "I've got plenty to be worked up over, without worrying over your love affairs, Vadnie."
Yes, seh, we all go'n' a' have a raght tolable homeplace." Then my grievance prompted me. "Yes, and who's going to get my breakfast and dinner for me, then?" I asked with a dark look, but he beamed upon me placatingly. "Oh, Ah's still go'n' a' do fo yo', Mahstah Majah. Ah steddied huh all out twell she's plumb systemous.
"Sure, sit down and talk it over," urged Herb placatingly. "No use gettin' all worked up over this thing, you know. Say," he added, with a sudden light in his, eye, "that reminds me of a joke I heard." But a roar of protest from the other boys drowned his voice. "Gag him, some one, can't you?" Joe's voice was heard above the uproar.
He sent a ferocious scowl in the direction of the two young men who were grinning behind Professor Brierly's back. He held out a large gnarled hand placatingly: "Pardon me, Professor, but it does seem far I mean your logic is absolutely amazing. We who know you believe it, of course, but " "Oh," said the old man mollified. "You shall have proof of course.
And even Billee, the good-natured, was less good-natured, and whined not half so placatingly as in former days. Buck never came near Spitz without snarling and bristling menacingly. In fact, his conduct approached that of a bully, and he was given to swaggering up and down before Spitz's very nose. The breaking down of discipline likewise affected the dogs in their relations with one another.
There was a silence at the anger in his tone, then Gaskin began very placatingly, "Hi'm not wishin' to chafe ye, sor, but th' dock is so big th' lads 'ave decided the sorpint is afraid o' th' dock."
