"How are you, Charley?" greeted Thorpe reticently. "You gettum pine? Good!" replied Charley in the same tone. That was all; for strong men never talk freely of what is in their hearts. There is no need; they understand. Two months passed away. Winter set in. The camp was built and inhabited. Routine had established itself, and all was going well.
"All right," he evaded reticently. "He prayed, Cloudy!" announced Leslie proudly. "It was regular!" "Well, what could a fellow do?" said Allison apologetically, as if he had done something he was half ashamed of.
It is to be employed as apparatus for the formation of judgments rather than the embellishment of them, though, of course, it may be used reticently by way of illustration, explanation and the like.
Zotique's duty of directing the actual carrying out of the campaign made him an authority on the "feel" of the constituency. "Breboeuf will give you figures," replied he, reticently, for the struggle had proved grave. The Curé had almost succeeded, so far, in keeping his vow. "Eh bien, ma brebis?" "From the lists as Zotique has marked them I compute a majority of 28."
And all the time this was just above us." "It is horrible; one doesn't like to think of it," Gifford said reticently. "I cannot understand it," Kelson went on, with a sharp gesture of perplexity.

On the day of the surrender of Manila the British and the Japanese ships in the harbor took a position between the American and the German squadrons.

She belonged to a sex which, if it is honest at all, is never reticently so. She believed that between the man she loved and herself there were no possible mental withdrawals.
She was tall, weedy, pretty, and incurably rakish. Whether she wore a low middy collar or dressed reticently for school in a black suit with a high-necked blouse, she was airy, flippant.
