"I'm telling him the facts of life about precognition," Morgan told her. "I think he understands now." "I don't agree," said Bors. Gwenlyn said amusedly, "Two of our Talents want to talk to you, Captain. You might say that they want to measure you for rumors." "They what?" demanded Bors, startled.
"Come in!" bellowed the voice of the owner of the show. Phil entered, hat in hand. At the moment the owner was busily engaged with a pile of bills for merchandise recently purchased at the local stores, and he neither looked up nor spoke. Phil stood quietly waiting, noting amusedly the stern scowl that appeared to be part of Mr. Sparling's natural expression.
You can tell me that, I should think, seeing he's an old Timbuctoo friend of yours. Galer's the name he goes by here." "Galer!" "That's the man. And do you know what he had the impudence, the gall, to tell me? That he was in my own line of business. A detective! He said you had sent for him to come here!" The detective laughed amusedly at the recollection. "And so he is, you fool. So I did."
Whereat the elder Dick's expression, which had grown somewhat dark at the mention of Lord Shotover, brightened sensibly again. And, for cause unknown, he looked at Honoria, smiling amusedly, before saying to the very voluble small sportsman: "To be sure, Dick. Your arguments are unanswerable, convincingly sound. No reasonable man could have a doubt about it! Of course it's the same deer."
"May I see his hand?" asked Irene, trying to make fun of her wish. He gave her the letter, and watched her amusedly as she gazed at the first page. On receiving it back again, he took his penknife, carefully cut out the great man's signature, and offered it for Irene's acceptance. "Thank you. But you know, of course, that I regard it as a mere curiosity." "Oh, yes! Why not?
This fellow seems to have been struck by Krebs, says he's a coming man, that he's making original contributions to the people's cause. Quite a tribute. You ought to read it." Dickinson, who had finished his lunch, got up and left the table after lighting his cigar. Ralph's look followed him amusedly. "I'm afraid it's time to cash in and be good," he observed.
She was leaning back in her chair, her hands behind her head, a posture she often assumed. She looked up at me amusedly. "I'll acknowledge that you're more teachable than most of them," she said. "Do you know, Hugh, sometimes you puzzle me greatly. When you are here and we're talking together I can never think of you as you are out in the world, fighting for power and getting it.
There are other matters in which I amusedly let her have her way, though she fondly reminds me almost daily of my brutal self-will. On one point I have just been obliged to assert this. She came running to me with a suggestion for economizing in the manufacture of the relish. She had devised a cheaper formula. But I was firm.
"Ah, but the Ambassador and you, for the last quarter-of-an-hour, have been for them as one. He's YOUR ambassador." It may indeed be further mentioned that the more Fanny looked at it the more she saw in it. "They've connected her with you she's treated as your appendage." "Oh, my 'appendage," the Prince amusedly exclaimed "cara mia, what a name!
Dorothy, who had been dimpling amusedly as she delivered her lecture, flushed deeply. "I don't know," she admitted. "We like to hear about it because we've been gardening all summer and anything about trees or plants interests us," explained Tom politely, though the way in which Mary spoke seemed like an attack on Dorothy.
