"And when will he begin, Mr. Narkom? To-morrow? The next day? Or not this week at all? When, sir when?" "When?
But this was the last thing the prospective millionaires had in mind, and the suggestion of their visitor was mildly but firmly waived. Dr. Webb was not a gentleman to insist upon a suggestion.

He spoke in English, but the officer guessed his meaning. Some of the Indians and Canadians soon came flocking down, and, with angry gestures, demanded that the prisoners should be shot; but the French officer waived them off, and placed a strong guard of his own men around them, to prevent their being touched by the Indians.

If a delegate pleaded the emergency of the case and asked that the rule be waived, as those from Rhode Island did at one time, Congress refused to sanction such a palpable infraction of the Articles.
All attempts to renew the conversation of that painful Thursday morning were waived aside. Hubert was at a loss to know how to proceed with his project, but he and Winifred gave themselves to diligent prayer.
