"I 'lowed the day Wat war 'lected," she temporized, laying her hand on the gate, which his stronger hand kept still closed. "Waal, this is the day Wat is 'lected." She drew back. Even in the dim light he could see her blue eyes widening with inquiry as she looked at him. "I 'lowed the returns warn't all in," she said doubtfully.
The editor temporized by asking the indignant Sundown to frame the apology, which he did. Then the wily autocrat of the "Mesa News," after reading the apology, agreed to an armistice and mentioned the fact that it was a hot day. Sundown intimated that he knew one or two places in Usher which he was not averse to visiting under the circumstances. And so the treaty was ratified.
South Carolina, regarding herself as now an independent State, had sent an embassy to Washington to negotiate among other things for its surrender and transfer to the State authorities. Buchanan had met these emissaries and temporized without definitely committing himself.
"At these last mighty words," says the Memoirs, "a stern resolution sat upon his countenance, which the Canadian beheld and with reluctance temporized." After a series of adventures, and dangers of every kind, the fugitives succeeded in capturing a French boat.
The great army of the South waited, because the great army of the North, under McClellan, also waited and temporized while the autumn was passing fast.

I've just met Miss Strong, and she told me. She's moved up with us, and there's a new mistress for VB. Haven't seen her yet, but they say she's nice, though I'd rather stick to Miss Strong, wouldn't you?" "I don't know," temporized Ingred, screwing her mouth into a button. "Oh, of course! I forgot! You're not a 'Strong' enthusiast never were! Now I like her!"
She spoke very quietly, but, too, very earnestly. Murder is an ugly word; I marvelled that she did not shrink from it. "Why are you so anxious to know, Miss Cooper?" I temporized "out of friendship for Mr. Maillot?" "No," frankly meeting my intent look, "though that would be a sufficient reason."
