Then he went to his horse, and when they saw him going away on the road he had come, they set up a shouting, and Mart fired a signal. The rider dived from his saddle and made headlong into the cabin, where the door clapped to like a trap. Nothing happened further, and the horse stood on the bank. "That's the funniest man I ever saw," said Nancy. "They're all funny over there," said Mart.

Daughter said it was the funniest thing in life to see him propped up in bed with a striped skull-cap on, hooking his wife a shawl." Lloyd laughed, but she followed the stooped figure with a glance of sympathy. She knew from experience how hard it was to spend the time in enforced idleness. Old Mr. Coburn had always been a familiar figure to her.

"Besides, if I died, I wouldn't die th' way that feller did. That was th' funniest thing. I'd jest flop down, I would. I never seen a feller die th' way that feller did. "Yeh know Tom Jamison, he lives next door t' me up home.

"Still still," said Count Victor, "one hesitates to mention it to so excellent a custodian of the family reputation still there are other things to me somewhat somewhat crepuscular." His deprecatory smile and the gesture of his hands and shoulders conveyed his meaning. "Ye're thinkin' o' the Baron in tartan," said Mungo, bluntly. He smiled oddly. "That's the funniest bit of all.

Why, you can't conceive of the absurdity of it all nobody can! Gilbert was there and told me every word of it. You would have thought he was a grand duke or a pasha punishing a slave and the funniest thing about it is that he believes he is a pasha. Oh I have no patience with such contemptible family pride, and that's what is at the bottom of it."

I'll never forget your faces, Tabs, when Daddy introduced the two of you."

I went over to Cox to congratulate him upon his defence of Chanler, and in reply Cox said: "The funniest part of it is that Chanler took it all in earnest and came to my seat and thanked me for my speech." Cox had no malice in his nature and there was always a doubt whether he had any sincerity in his politics.

Cassandra had recovered from her whipping, and was bustling about her tasks as if nothing had happened. Agias seemed to have a never failing fund of good spirits. He was always ready to tell the funniest stories or retail the latest news.
