"Bother!" said Norah, vexedly. "Silly man! I don't want him to give me presents and that wound of his ought certainly to have been looked after for a few days." "He said he was going to travel with Ram Das and old Ram'll see that he ties it up, I expect," said Jim, with unconcern. "I wouldn't bother, old first-aid; it looked tip-top when you dressed it before breakfast."
"'Or perhaps, the sergeant pursued, vexedly, 'we shall be obliged to shoot him down as he dashes out when the door is opened. He was going to give further vent to his anxieties as to the proper carrying out of the sentence; but he interrupted himself with a sudden exclamation, snatched a musket from a soldier, and stood watchful with his eyes fixed on the window."
He shook his head vexedly. "No need for 'em to have to go, except they wouldn't play along with humans. Acted like delinks, they did. Only proud. Y'don't get mad fighting 'em. So I heard, anyway. If they only had sense you could get along with them." He dogged the door shut. Patrolman Willis pushed a button. The squad ship fell toward the sky. Very matter-of-factly.
Outside in the blazing sunshine Judy was mowing the lawn. They only kept one man, and, as his time was so taken up with the horses and stable work generally, the garden was allowed to fall into neglect. More than once the Captain had spoken vexedly of the untidy lawns, and said he was ashamed for visitors to come to the house.
"Take care, Polly, you broke that; thread's dear now." "I couldn't help it," said Polly, vexedly; "it snapped; everything's dear now, it seems to me! I wish we could have oh! ever an' ever so many candles; as many as we wanted. I'd light 'em all, so there! and have it light here one night, anyway!" "Yes, and go dark all the rest of the year, like as anyway," observed Mrs.
I think you're afraid I'll tell you something for your own good. If I stayed here, I might. Goodnight!" She started down the stairs. Cochrane said vexedly: "Hold on! Confound it, I didn't know I was so transparent! I'm sorry, Babs. Look! Tell me something for my own good!" Babs hesitated, and then said very cheerfully: "You only see things the way a man sees them.
"Who the deuce is that with Miss Martin?" he said, returning her signal. "Siddle, the chemist," announced Robinson, not too well pleased himself at being "spotted" so openly. "Well, gentlemen, I'll be off," and he vanished by the side path through the laurels. "Siddle!" repeated Grant vexedly. "So it is. And she dislikes the man, for some reason."
"Would you mind striking a match and seeing if there isn't a lamp or something we could light?" "But I haven't a match that's just it! If I had ! Why I assure you I've been wishing for nothing so much as a light ever since you ever since I came in." "If I were a man " she began, vexedly, but suddenly checked herself. "Are you quite sure you haven't a single one?"
"There," she whispered; "that's over and well over!" The next minute she frowned vexedly. She had missed her glove. "Never mind! I sha'n't go back in there for it now, anyway," she decided. In the living-room, five minutes later, Alice Greggory found only a hastily scrawled note waiting for her.
"Well, please do me the favour never to DARE to touch my things again," he said as he gathered up the broken fragments and looked at them vexedly. "And will YOU please do me the favour never to ORDER me to do anything whatever," I retorted. "When a thing's broken, it's broken, and there is no more to be said." Then I smiled, though I hardly felt like smiling.
