Whether to be 'touted' was to be held up, buncoed, or drugged and robbed, I had no definite notion; but I took it to be a confidence game of some sort and despised it accordingly. Just here, following Murray, I elbowed my way into the hottest, best-natured, most conglomerate crowd it was ever my lot to mingle with.
We will also oppose legislation touted as providing protection that in reality pits one American worker against another, one industry against another, one community against another, and that raises prices for us all.

"I had a stomach-laugh slipped to me just now." He began to shake. "So you broke up my tete-a-tete to tell me a funny story?" "Listen here. These cowboys have got you touted for a foot- runner."
