And he stood up, took off his hat, bowed gravely to Susan, said, "I'm glad to have seen you again." Susan, with some color forced into her old-ivory skin by nervousness and amazement, went into the presence of Fitzalan. As the now obsequious girl closed the door behind her, she found herself facing a youngish man with a remnant of hair that was little more than fuzz on the top of his head.
Nesbitt was just going to court, so he told me to call up a garbage man and get the rubbish removed. "I didn't know the garbage men from the ministers, and they weren't classified in the directory. So I went to Mr. Orchard, a youngish sort of man, very pleasant, but slicker than Nesbitt himself. "I said, not too amiably, 'Who are the garbage haulers in this town?
G.J., mystified, caught the grey eye of a youngish woman with a tired and fretful expression. "And you?" she inquired perfunctorily. He demanded, with hesitation: "Is this the Lechford Committee?" "The what Committee?" "The Lechford Committee headquarters." He thought she might be rather an attractive little thing at, say, an evening party.
And they waited for quite two hours before the man who had been again and again sent up to play Sister Anne in the great cowl came down at last to say that he had seen the doctor's chaise coming along the lane, and five minutes after a keen-looking youngish man entered the great barn-like place, examined his patient at once, asking questions the while, and then with clever hands put a stop to further bleeding, bandaged the wound, and contrived that a little water should trickle between the sufferer's lips.

Boxing is rough play, but not too rough for a hearty young fellow. Anything is better than this white-blooded degeneration to which we all tend. I dropped into a gentlemen's sparring exhibition only last evening. It did my heart good to see that there were a few young and youngish youths left who could take care of their own heads in case of emergency.

I didn't mean to be rude. "'Rude? I ses, staring at her. "'Of course it was a rude thing for me to say, she ses, smiling; 'because you are still a young man yourself. "I shook my 'ead.

They were a picturesque lot, the ancient waiters and bell-hops grouped about Antoine with their lanterns and garden implements and firearms. Antoine was swallowing hard in his effort to continue his recital. "You say an old lady, sir; the mistress is not really what you would call so old not exactly, sir." "Really a youngish party, I should say," volunteered Graves, the gardener.
I think he is not quite so old as your father." "I suppose he is rather young then. I am glad of that. I should never be so much afraid of youngish people as of old ones."
