Pan's father showed his unfamiliarity with long horseback rides and he made sundry remarks, mirth provoking to his son. "I'll make a cowboy and horse wrangler of you again," threatened Pan. By the time Lying Juan had supper ready Blinky and Gus rode in camp. "Hungrier'n a wolf," said Blinky. "Well, what's the verdict?" asked Pan with a smile. "Wuss an' more of it," drawled Blinky.
I feel that he's answered my prayers, but if you should ever turn hypocrite, I'll start praying again." Donald left the following morning in the automobile for the logging-camps up-river, and because of his unfamiliarity with their present location, his father's chauffeur drove him up.

It was a room with which she had never been able to establish any closer relation than that between a traveller and a railway station; and now, as she looked about at the surroundings which stood for her deepest affinities the room for which she had left that other room she was startled by the same sense of strangeness and unfamiliarity.
When he reached it he sat down, unfolded the letter, and without attempting to read it, turned its pages over and over with the unfamiliarity of an illiterate man in search of the signature. This when found apparently plunged him again into motionless abstraction.
Lands were granted on a lavish scale on the south side of the island where an abundance of savannahs facilitated tillage; but the development of sugar culture proved slow by reason of the paucity of slaves and the unfamiliarity of the settlers with the peculiarities of the soil and climate.
