Staff Captain

I took two travelling-tumblers out of my portmanteau, and, filling one of them, set it before the staff-captain. ❋ Unknown (2003)

“I know that, my friend, I know that without your telling me,” said the staff-captain. ❋ Unknown (2003)

The Ossetes surrounded me clamorously and demanded tips; but the staff-captain shouted so menacingly at them that they dispersed in a moment. ❋ Unknown (2003)

The staff-captain did not understand these subtleties, shook his head, and smiled slyly. ❋ Unknown (2003)

After an interval of silence the staff-captain continued, tapping the ground with his foot: ❋ Unknown (2003)

Upon the mountain a grey cloud was hanging, and its cold breath threatened the approach of a storm; but in the east everything was so clear and golden that we — that is, the staff-captain and I — forgot all about the cloud ... ❋ Unknown (2003)

I said to the staff-captain, indicating our dirty hosts, who were silently gazing at us in a kind of torpor. ❋ Unknown (2003)

I had already put my cap on when the staff-captain entered the room. ❋ Unknown (2003)

I looked at the staff-captain with profound respect. ❋ Unknown (2003)

Maksim Maksimych had become the obstinate, cantankerous staff-captain! ❋ Unknown (2003)

“Why are you so certain?” answered the staff-captain, winking and smiling slyly. ❋ Unknown (2003)

Yes, the staff-captain too; in simple hearts the feeling for the beauty and grandeur of nature is a hundred-fold stronger and more vivid than in us, ecstatic composers of narratives in words and on paper. ❋ Unknown (2003)

The staff-captain hurriedly sipped a cup of tea, refused a second, and went off again outside the gate — not without a certain amount of disquietude. ❋ Unknown (2003)

I seized the papers and lost no time in carrying them away, fearing that the staff-captain might repent his action. ❋ Unknown (2003)

In the first place, this is not a novel, but a collection of travelling-notes, and, consequently, I cannot make the staff-captain tell the story sooner than he actually proceeded to tell it. ❋ Unknown (2003)

“Look, there is Krestov!” said the staff-captain, when we had descended into the Chertov Valley, as he pointed out a hill covered with a shroud of snow. ❋ Unknown (2003)

I asked the staff-captain, seizing him by the arm, and involuntarily rejoicing. ❋ Unknown (2003)

“Of course, from their point of view,” said the staff-captain, “he was perfectly right.” ❋ Unknown (2003)

The staff-captain answered not a word, but pointed with his finger to a lofty mountain which rose directly opposite us. ❋ Unknown (2003)

We carried it to the staff-captain, who pointed out very forcibly that it had been raining lately, that colour ran, that the signs left formed portions of letters. ❋ William Henry Lowe Watson (N/A)
