Next morning, of course, Don Carlos was the hero of the hour, and everyone was lavishing compliments and congratulations on him for having tackled an armed burglar single-handed and getting the better of the desperado. "I thought I heard someone prowling about in the corridor and got up to investigate," Don Carlos explained.
I've no doubt that she'll carry off Hilda, but she has no authority over Lalage." "Nobody has," said the Canon despondingly. "I've said that all along." "What about the Provost of Trinity College?" I said. "He tackled her over the bishops. You might try him." "He won't interfere," said the Canon. "I asked him." "Well," I said, "I can do no more.
Hoisting himself, as it were, on a mounting billow of his own profanity, Loge cast himself with a wide swimming motion of his arms from the auto. But one of the men clung to him; they came to the ground together like tackler and tackled in a football game.
Just splendid!" He gulped down half a tumbler of whisky and soda to hide his feelings. "And you've been doing all this while I've been making a howling fool of myself! Look here, Simon, you were right all along the line from the very first when you tackled me about Lola. Do you remember?" "Why refer to it?" I asked. "I must!" he burst in quickly. "I've been longing to put myself square with you.
Eleanore could help others, I felt, because she had first helped herself, had tackled the mote in her own eye, from the time when she had gone down to the harbor to get her roots, as she called it. She was a wonderful manager, our budget was carefully worked out. And she had herself so well in hand she could put herself behind herself and smile clearly out on life.
"I came here last night from Marseilles." Crowther's eyes rested on the smiling face with its proud, patrician features with the look of a man examining a perfect bronze. "It's very kind of you to welcome me like this," he said. "I was feeling a stranger in a strange land as I came up that path." "I've been watching you," said Piers. "I liked the business-like way you tackled it. It was British."
The sergeant may be twice your age, but he's made of steel wire and moose-hide, and let me tell you he could give a pretty good account of himself in a ring against any man in Saskatchewan. Then, again, your intentions might be ever so good, but I wouldn't like to answer for you, or for any other white man, if it comes to being actually tackled by as heavy-handed a hard case as Sergeant Moore.
We made up our little scheme after he got into an argument with a man on the train and was carried past his station." "That's right," admitted Mr. Nestor, with a laugh. "But that fellow was the most obstinate, pig-headed Dutchman that ever tackled a plate of pig's knuckles and sauerkraut, and if he had the least grain of common sense he'd " "Pretzels!" cried Mary. "Eh? Oh, yes, my dear.
Was it a trick mango I had tackled so recklessly? I determined not to be stumped, and took a good big bite. In a moment, I discovered why I was the "observed of all observers." The last bite loosened a good deal of the peel, and the thing began to ooze.
If you try to follow me now, I'll kill you!" This sounded desperate enough and Gus had reason to believe the fellow meant it. But in spite of that and driven by righteous anger, he would again have tackled the enemy had not the voice of Grace Hooper checked him: "Oh, let him go; let him go!" she begged.
