Apparently deep in thought, he took a few unhurried steps across the room, and glanced about him critically. "A busy day, my son," he said, "a very busy day, and a humorous one as well. They think they can get the paper. They think but they are all mistaken." "You are sure?" I inquired. "Perfectly," said my father. "I shall dispose of it in my own way. I am merely waiting for the time." "Huh!"
Presently from a side street, faced by a large brick dwelling, there came with regular and unhurried tread a tall and dignified figure, crowned with a soft Panama, and tapping with official cane. As it approached the car the driver straightened a trifle on the seat. "Good mawnin', Judge Wilson," he said. "Uh-ah, good mawnin', James," replied the judge.
I could tell you now with infinite particularity of the shut flowers that opened as I looked, of tendrils and grass blades, of a blue-tit I picked up very tenderly never before had I remarked the great delicacy of feathers that presently disclosed its bright black eye and judged me, and perched, swaying fearlessly, upon my finger, and spread unhurried wings and flew away, and of a great ebullition of tadpoles in the ditch; like all the things that lived beneath the water, they had passed unaltered through the Change.
But what did the point of view matter: he was content and unhurried what better beginning for a vacation? In fact in those two words lies the real vacation essence. Meanwhile, as I munched and sipped, with luxurious irresponsibility, I watched Maria moving to and fro between the shrubs that bounded the east alley of the old garden.
So is a wood and a river." "So," supplemented Kenny with the calm, unhurried air of one who scores an unexpected point, "is a postmark on a letter." Startled, Garry reached for the envelope. Kenny put it in his pocket. "An obscure village in Pennsylvania," he explained with dignity, "where your wood and your river will likely have definite individuality. I shall go there."
He caught himself, stopped his knife and fork in the act of rending apart a broiled chicken. "Confound it! I'll start when she comes in sight, no matter whether I've finished this meal or not," he promised himself. And suddenly he felt unhurried, in the midst of a large leisure, with a savory broiled chicken dinner before him, not exactly before him, either; most of it had been stuffed away.
Where is your horse?" He threw the earnest questions rapidly across the black night, and the unhurried voice answered him. "No," it said, and the verdict was not to be disputed. "You must stay here."

When, by a chance indefinitely rarer than it is with us at home, one meets an Irishman in England, or better still an Irishwoman, there is an instant lift of the spirit; and, when one passes the Scotch border, there is so much lift that, on returning, one sinks back into the embrace of the English temperament, with a sigh for the comfort of its soft unhurried expectation that there is really something in what you say which, will be clear by-and-by.
Well, the race has come up a peg, I'll say that for it." Mrs. Conrad was ready first. She was very rapid, in a quiet, unhurried fashion. In her corduroy skirt and jacket, she looked very girlish. Polly mentally took five years off her estimate of her new acquaintance's age. "Awfully natural looking woman, too," she commented, silently.
Sometimes a dozen soldiers rushed upon the muzzle of the field-piece surrounding it. At such moments Davy Crockett's arms swept back and forth with smooth unhurried swiftness and his sinewy fingers relaxed from one walnut stock only to clutch another; his hands were never empty.
