Leroux put down his pen and stood up. "Damn it! he's out! I have no memory!" He retied the girdle of his dressing-gown, which had become unfastened, and opened the study door. Opposite, across the entrance lobby, was the outer door; and in the light from the lobby lamp he perceived two laughing eyes peering in under the upraised flap of the letter-box. The ringing ceased.
The suspicion of tears shone in her eyes as she finally shook her head, and, evening them carefully, retied them. "No," she whispered, half aloud, "I mustn't be foolish. He's just my brother, that is the way he cares for me. It has always been like that. And I ... I mustn't be foolish." Almost angrily she brushed away the single tear which had started its uncertain course down her cheek.
He untied her ankles from the stirrups and her hands from the saddle horn, carried her in his arms to his own horse and compelled her to mount. Then he retied her exactly as she had been tied on Snake. "Skinner knows this trail," he told Lorraine. "And I'm behind yuh with a gun. Don't forget that, Miss Spitfire.
Mary retied the baby's flapping head-gear, and they set forth. "Let me have him," she begged, mother-like. "No. He is too heavy for you." The father carried the child, who loved the feel of the strong arms, in which he jumped up and down, continuing to make play with his sturdy little fists.
Bog led the way, and gently dragged Pet from step to step, with much laughter on his part, and many charming little feminine screams on her party until the trap door was reached. Uncle Ith had combed his hair with his five fingers, retied his old black cravat, and put on his coat, to receive them.
Suppose we count them and take out some for to-morrow. One, two, three, twelve chocolates, and sixteen marshmallows. How many have you?" "Thirteen chocolates and fifteen marshmallows," announced Florence. "Well, let's eat six of them, and put the rest away." So they were carefully counted out, and the packages retied.
Hilma, standing up before him, retied a knot in her handkerchief bundle with elaborate precaution, blinking at it through her tears. "What do you say, Miss Hilma?" Annixter repeated. "How about that? What do you say?" Just above a whisper, Hilma murmured: "I I don't know." "Don't know what? Don't you think we could hit it off together?" "I don't know." "I know we could, Hilma.
If only you'll always feel like that about me..." She stopped, hardly knowing what she said, and aghast at the idea that her own hands should have retied the knot she imagined to be broken. But she saw he had something more to say; something hard to get out, but absolutely necessary to express.
It was misty and flecked with clear spots where the quicksilver had dropped away, but when he propped it against the cobwebbed window he could see himself fairly well. Staring into its dim depths he retied his necktie; then he backed the buggy out of the carriage-house.
Pierre could be both swift and dexterous if he chose, and he rapidly unrolled and divided the contents of the cotton tent. Putting part into the blanket he retied the rest in the sheeting, and now neither bundle was a very severe tax. "Whew! What's the sense of that? It's the same weight. How does halving it help?" Pierre swung the canoe upon his head and directed: "Catch hold them straps.
