It ought to be worth a thousand to you for me to have slept on that cot through the whole business without waking up and seeing anything." Goodwin opened two more letters, and made memoranda in pencil on them. Then he called "Manuel!" to his secretary, who came, spryly. "The Ariel when does she sail?" asked Goodwin. "Senor," answered the youth, "at three this afternoon.
Nettie had called him Pop and joked with him and almost flirted with him in a daughterly sort of way. He liked to squeeze her plump arm and pinch her soft cheek between thumb and forefinger. She would laugh up at him and pat his shoulder and that shoulder would straighten spryly and he would waggle his head doggishly. "Look out there, George!" the others in the room would say.
He hoped that another time he would be able to show Pete how it felt to be pounded. "All right I'll be here at the same time to-morrow." So Pete trotted off spryly in one direction; and Cuffy trotted off in another, but not quite so spryly, for his head ached and one of his eyes was closed tight. "Mercy sakes!" Mrs. Bear said, when Cuffy came into the house. "Look at those trousers!"
Ives, Cornwall, March 10, 1918. DEAR KITTY: A week here. No news. Shoecraft says we've missed nothing in London. What we came for we've got: your mother's quite well. She climbs these high hills quite spryly. We've had a remarkable week in this respect we haven't carried on a conversation with any human being but ourselves. I don't think any such thing has ever happened before.
I think this was the first time that she had given me more than just a trace of a smile; but now she smiled, a very sweet winning smile; and getting spryly out of the wagon she said that she had been a lazy and useless passenger all the time she had been with me, and that from then on she was going to do the cooking.
And his captor let him go, to give herself the pleasure of pouncing upon him again. She knew well enough that he couldn't get away from her. He could run quite spryly for an old gentleman it is true. But when he couldn't see where he was going, of what use was running? Farmer Green's cat didn't know the answer to that question herself. She captured and freed Grandfather Mole several times.
So her feet twinkled across the cellar floor and she disappeared inside the box. Not hearing anything from her, Moses Mouse soon grew more impatient than ever. "Well!" he sang out. "What luck!" "Potatoes!" came his wife's muffled answer, out of a full mouth. "I declare, I forgot to call you." FOR ANYBODY that was so faint, Moses Mouse ran to the box of potatoes very spryly.
But at this moment a delivery wagon turned into the field, and drove briskly to the spot. From it Mr. Stafford descended spryly. "Sorry to be a little late, boys; just couldn't help it," he apologized. His arrival galvanized the crowd into activity. From the delivery wagon they unloaded boxes of shells, two camp stools and a number of barrels.
So the German stepped out first, moving toward the door much too spryly for the type of street merchant he was supposed to be. "Do you mean that?" whispered Yasmini, as she pushed past Ranjoor Singh. "Do you mean to ride away with him and stage a mutiny? How can you?" "She-buffalo!" he answered, with the first low laugh she had heard from him since the game began.
As for Johnnie Green, he scrambled spryly over the wall and began to move in a bee line toward the sweet apple tree. He walked slowly and searched the ground with great care. But he saw no sign of his precious knife. Beneath the sweet apple tree Johnnie paused mournfully. "He was only fooling me!" he exclaimed. "That old Daddy Longlegs played a trick on me!"
