Throwing Judy aside, he caught the exhausted Betty Jo in his arms, and, carrying her a little back from the edge of the stream, placed her gently on the ground. Betty Jo did not faint; but she was too spent with her exertions to speak, though she managed to smile at him reassuringly, and shook her head when he asked if she was hurt.
They're not brick-bats," came reassuringly from one of the boys, as the Togetherers ranged through the outer part of that vast Tory Cave once the hiding-place of a political refugee, whose spirit seemed flitting among them in the filmy cave-fog which, dank and mournful, clung about the margin of that strange lake of fresh water where blind fish played.
"Yes, Kitty, who else should it be?" I said, reassuringly. "But tell me how is she? How is Mary? Let me hear the truth." Kitty looked up brightly: "Mary! oh, she is better, much better, and now that you are here, Jack, she will soon be well!" I drew a breath of intense relief. Then, touching my little sister's pale, tear-stained face, I asked what had so troubled her. "Oh!
"Man dear," whispered Father Pat to the scoutmaster, "don't ye ever be visitin' here agin! For, shure, Barber'll kill ye!" "Oh!" Johnnie was frightened. "And maybe he'll have y' 'rested!" "No, old fellow," said Mr. Perkins, reassuringly. "He's lost out, and he's not likely to advertise it. But I'm sorry about that tooth." He hunted it, found it, and examined it carefully.

Rischenheim, humiliated and angry, could do nothing but bow in acknowledgment of the king's rebuke. "Colonel Sapt, see that the count is well entertained. My horse should be at the door by now. Farewell, Count. Bernenstein, give me your arm." Bernenstein shot a rapid glance at the constable. Sapt nodded reassuringly. Bernenstein sheathed his sword and gave his arm to the king.
My petting and soothing together with the sense of home security and a cup of French chocolate prepared by Antoinette, who, astonished at our early return and seeing her darling in distress, had hastened to provide culinary consolation, had restored her wonted serenity of demeanour. Polyphemus also purred reassuringly upon her lap.
The Indian moved hesitatingly at first, in the direction of the entrance, keeping his gleaming eyes on the woman, as if doubtful whether she understood him. "Go on, be quick," she added reassuringly, though she took care that the old-fashioned weapon was not lowered or turned aside.
They passed quickly through the rooms; at the door of the last the general's wife set her candle down on a chair, and halted for a moment. The loud snoring of the reader startled them both. "It is the deacon!" whispered the general's wife reassuringly. Rita had hardly strength to nod assent. All the same, the healthy snoring of a living man comforted her.
