Whether isolation as a psychic experience has decreased for many in the country is a matter of doubt. Certainly most minds need the stimulus of human association for both happiness and healthiness, and even yet the minds of farmers disclose the narrowness, suspiciousness, and discontent of place that isolation brings.
"What ails you?" Prescott demanded. "Suspicion," Dave replied dryly. "In fact, I've a bad case of suspiciousness." "What are you talking about?" Dick insisted. "I don't know," Dave admitted. "But I've something of a shivery hunch that perhaps we'd better not open that box." "What, then? Toss it into the lake?" "Even that might not be as foolish as it sounds to you," Darry went on.
My deep and tender love for you; your youth and inexperience; the examples of other young men; your distance from parental counsel; our absolute and painful ignorance of all the details of your daily life, except what you yourself tell us: try to throw yourself into the standing of a parent, and say if my suspiciousness is unreasonable.
Thus did I learn the first lessons of suspiciousness. They attended me to the schoolhouse; they governed and made me watchful there. The schoolhouse, the play-places the very regions of earnest faith and unlimited confidence produced no such effects in me. They might have done so, had I ceased, on going to school, to see my relatives any longer.
I rejoicingly acknowledge that from all I see you are pursuing a virtuous, steady, worthy course. One good thing my suspiciousness does: ever and anon it brings out from you assurances, which greatly refresh and comfort me. And again, it carries me ever to God's Throne of Grace on your behalf Holy Job suspected that his sons might have sinned, and cursed God in their heart.
Oke's lips eyes and lips that had no look and no smile for him. Gradually his nervousness, his watchfulness, suspiciousness, tendency to start, took a definite shape.

There was a suspiciousness in the action that enhanced Bart's interest and curiosity, but he preserved his composure. "Three dollars, did you say?" he inquired, in an insinuating and soothing, but strictly business tone. "Yes!" gasped out Baker. "I am bid " "Four." Bart looked fixedly at Lem Wacker, for it was he who had spoken.
There was but one way in which he could connect this letter with Mamie's faithlessness. It was an infamous, a grotesquely horrible idea, a thought which sprang as much from his inexperience of the world and his habitual suspiciousness of all humor as anything else!
Returning for the second or third time to the Central Rooms he found himself in a crowd of Irish labourers who had come in deference to priestly bidding to record their votes. Mr. Hutchings' retirement had excited their native suspiciousness; they felt that they had been betrayed, and yet the peremptory orders they had received must be followed.
"I thought you seemed so very anxious," I explained, suspicious of her suspiciousness, which was of so sly and emphatic a character that it changed her whole bearing from one of fear to one of cunning in a moment. "And who wouldn't feel the like of that for a poor creature lying crushed under a heap of broken crockery!"
