She felt a strong desire to see the meddlesome man who had thrust himself between her and her lover; and before her woman had got so far as the door, she said, "Let him up to me!" She was again surprised when Wogan was admitted, for she expected a stout and burly soldier, stupid and confident, of the type which blunders into success through sheer ignorance of the probabilities of defeat. Mr.
Bad Pete, now on foot, had turned into the camp from the farther side. Espying the boys he swaggered over toward them. "How do you do, sir?" nodded Tom. "Can't you two tenderfeet mind your own business?" snarled Pete, halting and scowling angrily at them.

Ruthlessly trenchant fellow, wordy pedagogue, meddlesome theorist, you seek the limits of your mind. They are at the end of your nose.

Captain Scarborough had received a long letter from Mrs. Mountjoy, praying for explanation of circumstances which could not be explained, and stating over and over again that all her information had come from Harry Annesley. The captain now called him an interfering, meddlesome idiot, and shook him violently while holding him in his grasp.
All she saw was a tiny black bag, that began at once to grow larger, till it was big enough to hold her two hands. Then it tied itself tight round her wrists, as if to keep these meddlesome hands out of mischief. "Well, this is very queer, but not so dreadful as the wasp. I hope no one will see it when I'm asleep.
France in the age of De Monts and Champlain possessed adequate resources, if only her effort had been concentrated on America, or if the Huguenots had not been prevented from founding colonies, or if the crown had been less meddlesome, or if the quest of beaver skins farther north had not diverted attention from Chesapeake Bay and Manhattan Island.

But he spoke his mind freely enough to his two friends in the tree. “It seems to me one of you ought to do something,” said he. “We’ll eat no pullets to-night if we can’t get rid of this meddlesome stranger.” Fatty Coon quite agreed with him.
