Once or twice of late he had said in that peevish snappy voice of his: "I wonder what that woman, Mrs. Courtenay's sister, is doing? I hear nothing of her." I did not enlighten him, for I had no desire to hear her maligned. I knew the truth myself sufficiently well.
"All the birds of Wellingsford." "I did go to see him now and then," he admitted. "I thought he was much maligned. A man with sincere opinions, even though they're wrong, is deserving of some respect, especially when the expression of them involves considerable courage and sacrifice. I wanted to get to the bottom of his point of view."
He made up his mind that Bosinney was maligned. There must be some other reason for his defection. June had flown out at him, or something; she was as touchy as she could be! He would, however, let Timothy have a bit of his mind, and see if he would go on dropping hints!

Honore, at Paris, sat a man ALONE a man who has been maligned, a man who has been called a knave and charlatan, a man who has been persecuted even to the death, it is said, in Roman Inquisitions, forsooth, and elsewhere. Ha! ha! A man who has a mighty will.
You will serve four stormy years; you will retire with friends less devoted and enemies more bitter; you will be misunderstood, maligned; and there's only a remote possibility that your vindication will come before you are too old to be offered a second term. And the harvest from the best you sow will be ruined in some flood of reaction." "No," he answered. "It will be reaped.
