The out-and-out young gentleman is usually no great dresser, his instructions to his tailor being all comprehended in the one general direction to 'make that what's-a-name a regular bang-up sort of thing. For some years past, the favourite costume of the out-and-out young gentleman has been a rough pilot coat, with two gilt hooks and eyes to the velvet collar; buttons somewhat larger than crown-pieces; a black or fancy neckerchief, loosely tied; a wide-brimmed hat, with a low crown; tightish inexpressibles, and iron-shod boots.

I shall get landed both ways." Psmith pondered. "It is a tightish place," he admitted. "I wonder if we could get this shoe clean," said Mike, inspecting it with disfavor. "Not for a pretty considerable time." "I suppose not. I say, I am in the cart. If I can't produce this shoe, they're bound to guess why."

The out-and-out young gentleman is usually no great dresser, his instructions to his tailor being all comprehended in the one general direction to ‘make that what’s-a-name a regular bang-up sort of thing.’ For some years past, the favourite costume of the out-and-out young gentleman has been a rough pilot coat, with two gilt hooks and eyes to the velvet collar; buttons somewhat larger than crown-pieces; a black or fancy neckerchief, loosely tied; a wide-brimmed hat, with a low crown; tightish inexpressibles, and iron-shod boots.

So, you see, he's certain to think that the chap he chased, which was me, and the chap who painted Sammy, are the same. I shall get landed both ways." Psmith pondered. "It is a tightish place," he admitted. "I wonder if we could get this boot clean," said Mike, inspecting it with disfavour. "Not for a pretty considerable time." "I suppose not. I say, I am in the cart.

And she was right. The venturesome man had, with his accustomed hardihood, attempted that day to scale the mountain side, and had fallen into a hole by the side of the track, from which he could by no means extricate himself, because of its being a tightish fit, his head being down and his legs were in the air. "Oh, Betsy, pull me out lass! I'm half-choked already," gasped the unfortunate man.

They'd see us coming a mile off." "If we can't get at the boat," said Kit, "neither can the Gentleman." "That's truth," mused the Parson, dropping the glass. "He'll prowl about till night-fall probably. Then he'll have a chance if they've got liquor. The boat's his one hope. He's in a tightish place, mind! enemy's country; wings clipped; his old friends his best enemies."

"Well, just before we came to this billet to rest we were in a tightish corner on the Somme. One of my youngest men was hit a shell came near to taking his arm clean off, so that it was left just hanging to his shoulders. He was only about eighteen years old, poor chap. It was a bad wound, but, as sometimes happens, it didn't make him unconscious then.

We wore, I dare say, the most infernal costume ever devised by man a tightish snuff-coloured jacket with diminutive tails, an orange waistcoat, snuff-coloured breeches, grey-blue worsted stockings, and square-toed shoes with iron toe-plates. The dock-boys, of course, greeted us with cries of "Yellow Hammer!"

One thing I made out: he could never really have thought much harm of Uma; he could never have been really frightened, and must just have made believe from dodginess, and because he thought Case had a strong pull in the village and could help him on. This set me thinking that both he and I were in a tightish place.
