"Why shouldn't I?" answered his tormentor, in a tone of the most perfect good humour. "Why shouldn't I in the house of an ould acquaintance and particular friend just the place to feel at home, eh, Stevens?" then folding his arms and tilting back his chair, he asked, coolly: "You haven't a cigar, have ye?" "No," replied Stevens, surlily; "and if I had, you should not have it.
He thought that there had been much more wind than usual that night in the gulf; whereas, as a matter of fact, the reverse was the case. Dr. Monygham's voice stopped muttering curses in English and Spanish. "Is that you, Mitchell?" he made answer, surlily. "I struck my forehead against this confounded wall with enough force to fell an ox. Where are you?"
"Got a sore throat?" demanded the boy surlily. He started toward the door. The agent made no move, but his eyes were attentive. "That'll be near enough," he said quietly. "Oh, we ain't on that lay," put in the grizzled man. He was quite hoarse. "You needn't to be scared of us." "I'm not," agreed the agent. And, indeed, the fact was self-evident.

Should she go down and decline, explain to Fraulein Pfaff. She hated her vindictively her "calm" message "treating me like a child." She saw the horse smile and heard the caustic voice.
"What are you going to do first, Bob?" said Dexter, who felt more bright and cheerful now out in the sunshine, with the surface all ripple and glow. "Why, I telled yer just now!" said the boy surlily. "Mind what yer doing, or you'll catch a crab."
Every nerve beat with fever; she could endure the solitude no longer she groaned, she shrieked aloud she beat herself against the door. Her cries echoed along the hall, and Sosia, in peevish anger, hastened to see what was the matter, and silence his prisoner if possible. 'Ho! ho! what is this? said he, surlily.

He fell off a trapeze and broke his neck, and I was glad of it." The look that passed between Plug Ivory and Plug Avery carried all the pith of the quotation: "The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceeding small." "So am I," grunted Buck, surlily. "No, I'm sorry he didn't live to torment you.
The drivers were two men and a boy of his own age, mounted on horseback and carrying their provisions, apparently, strapped behind them.
