"Sit down, Ughtred," she said, and when he did so she herself sat down, but not too near him. Resting his chin on the handle of a crutch, he gazed at her almost protestingly. "I always have to do these things," he said, "and I am not clever enough, or old enough. I am only eleven." The mention of the number of his years was plainly not apologetic, but was a mere statement of his limitations.
Flint paid the bills; for the first ten years protestingly, and after that he gave it up and let her go her own gait. She had come from the town of Sharon, in another State, through which Mr. Flint's railroad also ran, and she had been known as the Rose of that place.
From what he could see of the wound, he was prepared to state professionally that any delay would be highly dangerous. The sergeant yielded the point respectfully, but protestingly; and the cab came, bringing an excited crowd in its train. There was no lack of proffered help; but the Doctor and the sergeant lifted the insensible woman into the cab between them.
Cardinal Bonpre, always observant, noticed his action. "You will not leave the flowers there?" he queried. "No. The picture is a sacred thing! it is an almost living Christ! -in whom Varillo does not believe!" The Cardinal lifted his eyes protestingly. "Yet you let the child marry him?" Sovrani passed one hand wearily across his brows.
In another moment Rollo Van Kyp had been seized by the brawny sergeant, lately a mounted policeman of New York city, and was being marched protestingly away, leaving Ridge bewildered, friendless, and uncertain what to do. While our hero stood irresolute, he saw Silas Pine gain a sitting posture, and gaze about him with the air of one who is dazed.
He muttered protestingly until he had been dumped in his berth and then promptly went to sleep as he was. They spent the next day at Shelter Island, not because anyone considered it wrong to cruise on Sunday, but because Steve and Joe and Han had discovered attractions at the hotel.
Alison's voice caught.... The car which came roaring through the darkness, and which stopped protestingly at their corner, was ablaze with electricity, almost filled with passengers.
I says, I'll see for myself where this here paragon lays it all over the rest of her sect, but sho the closter I came to old man Rhett the mo' I heard of Polly!" "Dick, how you do run on," cried Polly protestingly, but Chills and Fever's knightly soul dwelt in its illusions, and the years had not made stale his romance. Also Polly was beaming on him with a wealth of affection.
She had muttered protestingly, but because of the hatred in his face she was not brave enough to tell him that she had made her peace with his father before he died. Not even for Harry's sake would she imperil the love between her and her son. She had gone home a few months later, but, of course, it had been useless. Roger would never come back to live with her.
"I was saying to a customer, only yesterday, that you don't seem able lately to throw off your work when you've finished. You keep on threshing it out in your mind. And it's all very well, to a certain extent, but there's a medium in all things." Mrs. Mills went to the half-open door, that was curtained only in regard to the lower portion. "Trimming a hat," she cried protestingly.
