"No such thing," said Ransome, angrily, and casting a side-look at Grace. "She lay on the second floor, and Mr. Little on the first floor." "Thou simple body," said the woman. "What's a stair to a young man when a bonny lass lies awaiting him, and not a soul about? They were a deal too close together all day, to be distant at night." A murmur of assent burst at once from all the women.
She had heard Will depart and now, in a fever of impatience, crept with bright, questioning eyes to her father's chair. Whereupon Mr. Blee withdrew in a violent hurry. No one audibly desired him to do so, but a side-look from the girl was enough. Phoebe's conversation with her father occupied a space of time extending over just two minutes.
He was paler, but with hair and eyes as dark, and he wore a sort of habitual side-look, as if his mind were all the while inquiring if anybody within sight happened to have any thing he wanted.
"Nugent is the soul of honor," he repeated again and again with a side-look at me which suggested that my frankly-avowed opinion of his brother had hurt and offended him. I had barely time to notice this, before we reached my lodgings. He appeared to be unwilling to follow me into the house.

"Isn't Claire here?" he asked, surprised. "She said she was going to lunch with you to-day.

"Not even Sigurd!" said that personage, with a meditative smile. "No, mistress; not even poor Sigurd!" "One of us might remain behind," suggested Lorimer, with a side-look at his friend.
Bring them to me by four o'clock this afternoon, and if they are well done, I will pay you more than I should do to the average hack-writer, for you will deserve more." I took the proofs; he turned to go, and by a side-look at George beckoned him out of the room. I heard a whispering in the passage; and I do not deny that my heart beat high with new hopes, as I caught unwillingly the words
Malcolm, however, came to my relief, by stating he had business at San Francisco, as he wished to see the captains of some of the vessels in the harbour there that might be bound for the Columbia River.
