"What?" demanded Fred Ripley, tensely. Dick himself thrust a hand into that pocket, and drew forth -Fred Ripley's missing pin. "What -why -who " gasped the freshman, suffocatingly. "Oh, yes, of course," jeered Fred Ripley. "Astonished, aren't you -you mucker?"
And suddenly this extraordinary young man put his hands to his face as though he feared to lose it and would hold it on, and after an apoplectic moment burst noisily into tears.

A very young naval cadet, who had been sent down to the engine-room from the Prince-Admiral's conning-tower with an order, met Heideck on the narrow, suffocatingly hot passage. He was a slender, handsome youth with a delicate, boyish face. The blood was streaming over his eyes and cheeks from a wound in the forehead.
'Will you carry the basket or the violin, Mater? Louisa rose, and with a forlorn expression took up her light luggage. The west opposite the door was smouldering with sunset. Darkness is only smoke that hangs suffocatingly over the low red heat of the sunken day. Such was Helena's longed-for night. The tramcar was crowded. In one corner Olive, the third friend, rose excitedly to greet them.
