I can understand some roughhousing on his part—Stevens, too—providing these boys were on the prod in the beginning. But this book business was too deliberate. "Where’d these come from anyway, Kirby?" Drew retailed the story he had heard from Stein. Nye walked over to look at the display of reading matter, his interest plainly aroused. "Lutterfield brought ’em in, eh?
Sothern had vended his soap in small cubes on street corners, and that he wrapped bank notes of various denominations in the bars, which same were retailed to eager customers for the small sum of fifty cents, after a guarantee that the soap was good? His customers rarely patronized him twice; and frequently they used bad language because the soap wrapping was not as valuable as they had expected.
With this end in view he wrote to his friend M. Hersant a keen student of the Occult in Saratova, to join him, and three days after the despatch of his letter met the latter at the Orskaia railway station. M. Durant retailed the case as they drove to his house. "It is a remarkable affair, in every way," he said.
But if the special phenomena of a later day were missing from the carnival, others, as astonishing to us as the steam-organ would have been to those uncouth roisterers, were certainly present.

Mrs. Norris was pleased with Tom's account of his success in the writing of the examination paper.
One of our company, I was told, had hurt himself by too much study, particularly of infidel metaphysicians, of which he gave a proof, on second sight being mentioned. He immediately retailed some of the fallacious arguments of Voltaire and Hume against miracles in general. Infidelity in a Highland gentleman appeared to me peculiarly offensive.
Here lay the real puzzle, and for some minutes I could make nothing of it. Then I remembered my telegram. According to William it had been referred back to the post office. But William on his own admission had but retailed pantry gossip caught up from Mr. Had the telegram been sent back unopened? William's statement left this in doubt.
But Lydia expressed a grateful negative with a shake of her head; she never nibbled between meals. She retailed the conversation with her father. Martie and Sally became fired with enthusiasm as they listened. An animated discussion followed. Grace was a problem. Dared they ignore Grace?
