"Play 'for fair'?" Fatty next asked. "Course," replied Jehosophat, "what did you think?" This friendly state of affairs didn't last very long. "You're cheating," called Jehosophat a little later. "I'm not, neither," Fatty shouted very angrily and ungrammatically. "You are, too," insisted Jehosophat. "The Toyman says you mustn't get over the marbles that way or put your foot in the ring.
"I put a penny in the slot here," he continued, feeling apparently the need of unburdening himself: "wanted a box of matches. I couldn't get anything put, and I was shaking the machine, and swearing at it, as one does, when there came along a man, about your size, and you're SURE it wasn't you?" "Positive," I again ungrammatically replied; "I would tell you if it had been. What did he do?"
Within the last few years we have seen the general introduction of Bord's little pianino, called in England, ungrammatically enough, pianette, in the action of which that maker cleverly introduced the spiral spring.
He talks ungrammatically; walks with a strange, awkward gait and stooping shoulders; is altogether unpicturesque, but wins one's confidence by his very lack of grace. It is not often that we see an artist so entirely free from affectation in his aspect and deportment. His pictures were views of Swiss and Italian scenery, and were most beautiful and true.
Besides, we shall be quite comfortable here by the stove." "No doubt no doubt," said the old man, cheerfully, "but that's not my way not my way. Any of you froze," he went on ungrammatically, "'cause if so, out you go and thaw it out in the snow." "I guess there's no one frozen," said Jacky, smiling into the old man's face. "We're too old birds for that. Ah, here's Mrs. Norton."
Buckner wanted to attack Grant the next morning with the full Southern strength, and a comrade of his on old battlefields, Colonel George Kenton, seconded him ably. The black-bearded Forrest strode back and forth, striking the tops of his riding boots with a small riding whip, and saying ungrammatically, but tersely and emphatically: "We mustn't stay here like hogs in a pen.
He doesn't know he's going to marry Alice. It almost makes one a Calvinist, doesn't it. He's predestined, but perfectly happy." "Who is he in love with?" demanded Austen, ungrammatically. "I'm going to say good-by to him. I'll meet you in the field, if you don't care to come. It's only manners, after all, although the lemonade's all gone and I haven't had a drop." "I'll go along too," he said.
He was well aware what the Grammar School boys in Gridley did to one of their own number who was voted a sneak. "I I didn't mean any harm," muttered Hen, almost whimpering. "See here," demanded Dick, another idea coming to him, "how much did Fred Ripley pay you to help work against us." "He didn't pay me nothing," young Dutcher protested ungrammatically. "How much did he agree to pay you, then?
Oh, against all rule, my lord, most ungrammatically! betwixt the substantive and the adjective, which should agree together in number, case, and gender, he made a breach thus, stopping, as if the point wanted settling; and betwixt the nominative case, which your lordship knows should govern the verb, he suspended his voice in the epilogue a dozen times three seconds and three fifths by a stop watch, my lord, each time.
And it was I who said your friend Anthony's messenger must be engaged even if his face is is rather like an accident!" "It's like a catastrophe," remarked Monny, looking as if she blamed me. "Where is it?" I wanted to know. "It's waiting in a vestibule outside where the cook's cooking," Biddy explained ungrammatically. "I told it you'd want to see it. And it's got a letter for you from some one."
