"If Elsie has not told you already, it is my privilege to announce that she and I have signed articles," he said with a smile. "That is, we intend to get married as soon as the ship reaches England." "Indeed, I congratulate you both most heartily," said the missionary's wife. "Events have marched, then, while we were stranded on that wretched island?" tittered Isobel. Her voice was rather shrill.
Amy and Louisa Eshton tittered under their breath, and looked a little frightened. The minutes passed very slowly: fifteen were counted before the library- door again opened. Miss Ingram returned to us through the arch. Would she laugh? Would she take it as a joke?
"Then let us hope," said he, "that the country's real needs may remain unsatisfied." The Duchessa tittered. "Think of the poor farmers," she said reproachfully. "It's vain to think of them," he answered. "'T is an ascertained fact that no condition of the weather ever contents the farmers." The Duchessa laughed.
"Console yourself, Grace dear you're never likely to do that." The girls tittered at Lavinia's repartee. All knew that Grace Armitage was the vainest of the vain and believed every man who cast his eyes in her direction was in love with her. She went white with anger. But she was slow witted.

"You stay by it, and when you've learned to manage mules, I'll make a boss out of you, and let you manage men." Some of the bystanders tittered. The pit-boss poured down his whiskey, and set the glass on the bar.
