"His relationship to Lady Eustace cannot justify ungentlemanlike impertinence to me," said Lord Fawn. "He has dared to use words to me which would make it necessary that I should call him out, only " "Frederic, you shall do nothing of the kind!" said Lady Fawn, jumping up from her chair. "Oh, Frederic, pray, pray don't!" said Augusta, springing on to her brother's shoulder.

Some persons imagined that they saw in this strange reconciliation a sign that the influence of Portland was on the wane and that the influence of Albemarle was growing. For Marlborough had been many years at feud with Portland, and had even a rare event indeed been so much irritated as to speak of Portland in coarse and ungentlemanlike terms.

"And, if you were so very ungentlemanlike, as still to persecute her with your attentions, I should soon take measures to put a stop to them." What could I say or do? She was armed at all points, and I was powerless! "Will you let me see your daughter; and, learn from her own lips if she be of the same opinion as yourself?" I asked. I was longing to see Min.

Our negotiation had like to have come to an end by Clive's untimely indignation, who offered at one stage of the proceedings to pitch young Moss out of window; but nothing came of this most ungentlemanlike behaviour on Noocob's part, further than remonstrance and delay in the proceedings; and Honeyman preached a lovely sermon at Lady Whittlesea's the very next Sunday.

It has not been by anything I have said that you have heard of my acquaintance with him. The joke is a bad one, and will become vulgar if repeated." "Vulgar!" cried Crocker, pushing away his plate, and rising from his chair. "I mean ungentlemanlike. I don't want to use hard words, but I will not allow myself to be annoyed."

But White Connal's anger lasted longer: for many reasons he disliked Ormond; and thinking from Harry's gentleness, that he might venture to insult him, returned to the charge, and becoming high and brutal in his tone, said that "Mr. Ormond had committed an ungentlemanlike action, which it was easier to apologize for than to defend."

Percival, and he turned away from it; but to his active social disposition it was extremely irksome to stand idle and uninterested where all were busy and eager in one common pursuit; to his generous temper it seemed ungentlemanlike to stand by the silent censor of the rest of the company; and when he considered of how little importance a few hundreds or even thousands could be to a man of his large fortune, he could not help feeling that it was sordid, selfish, avaricious, to dread their possible loss; and thus social spirit, courage, generosity, all conspired to carry our man of feeling to the gaming-table.

"Miss Morris, I must be allowed, in discussing matters with my mother, to express my own opinions in such language as I may think fit to use. Mr. Greystock's conduct to me was was was altogether most ungentlemanlike." "Mr. Greystock is a gentleman." "His conduct was most offensive, and most most ungentlemanlike. Mr. Greystock disgraced himself." "It isn't true!" said Lucy.

By such conduct, and in such company abroad, they come home, the unimproved, illiberal, and ungentlemanlike creatures that one daily sees them, that is, in the park and in the streets, for one never meets them in good company; where they have neither manners to present themselves, nor merit to be received.

I had taken possession of a dressing-jacket of the lieutenant's, and some other articles of his wardrobe, which fitted me pretty well; and, I flatter myself, was no ungentlemanlike figure. 'Good-morrow, Corporal, said the doctor, rather gruffly, in reply to my smiling salute. 'Corporal! Lieutenant, if you please, answered I, giving an arch look at Lischen, whom I had instructed in my plot.
