Unhooking the stirrups from the pommel, Stillwell let them fall and began to search the saddle for something which he evidently expected to find. Presently from somewhere among the trappings he produced a folded bit of paper, and after scrutinizing it handed it to Al. "Addressed to you; an' I'll bet you two bits I know what's in it," he said.
"They are very sensitive to pain," he said, "but they are also very sensitive to pleasure. Do you know Claude Bernard?" "No." "He was a great scientist. He said that he didn't hesitate to recognize woman's supremacy in the domain of physical and moral sensibility." Nantueil; unhooking her stays, replied: "If he meant by that that all women are sensitive, he was indeed an old greenhorn.
But in the afternoon Mrs Garlick, hearing sounds in the drawing-room, went into the drawing-room and discovered Maria balanced on a pair of steps and unhooking lace curtains. "Maria," said she, "what are you doing?" Maria answered as busy workers usually do answer unnecessary questions from idlers. "I should ha' thought you could see, mum," she said tartly, insolently, inexcusably.
"Come," she said, "you must get everything packed at once. Lay out my ordinary dress and help me off with this." "Where is your other glove, my lady?" asked the maid, busily unhooking, and untying. "Lost. Don't trouble about it. When everything is packed, get some sleep, and leave word to be called in time for the eight o'clock express for Paris. Here is money to pay the bill and your fare.
If she stayed right side up we would probably land eventually. If she flopped over which she seemed trying to do, we'd get a cold bath and lose our teams, if no worse. Soon as I thought of that, I began unhooking the traces of the horse nearest. The poor brutes ought at least to have a chance to swim for it.
Twenty blithesome wounded Tommies at once went through an elaborate pantomime of unhooking receivers, and asked anxiously for "Willconk One, O, double-six, miss, please. No, miss, I didn't say, 'City, six, eight, five, four'; I said 'Willconk, One, O, double-six. Thank you, miss; now I can let mother know I'm coming to tea."
As safe," he added meaningly, "as dragging Fred Thurman, or unhooking Brit's chain-lock before he started down the canyon with his load of posts." Swan did not answer, but turned back to where the horse had been left tied and took up the trail from there. As before, the dog trotted along, Lone riding close behind him and Swan striding after.
The "Knights" began with mere commonplace tricks, such as unhooking and changing signs, ringing bells, flinging casks left before one house into the cellar of the next with a crash, rousing the occupants of the house by a noise that seemed to their frightened ears like the explosion of a mine.
For example, and here he arose and unhooking a file of current quotations from the wall, placed it in my lap as I sat beside him. 'Now here are Government three's selling at 108 3-8. They are as safe as the United States; and if I advised you to buy them, it would cost me no thought, and my character for safety would run no risk of a blemish. That is the sort of bond that a trustee recommends.
Exzellenz will excuse me...." It was a revolting spectacle, but it did not make the least impression on the son, who, putting down his cap and great-coat and unhooking his sword, led me into a kind of study. "These orderlies are such thickheads!" he said. "Rudi! Rudi!" a hoarse, strident voice screamed from the hall. The lieutenant ran out. "You've got to take the fellow to Berlin to-night.
