    131

    However, I should never have broken a horse or bull and taken him to board for any work he might do for me, for fear I should become a horseman or a herdsman merely; and if society seems to be the gainer by so doing, are we certain that what is one man's gain is not another's loss, and that the stable-boy has equal cause with his master to be satisfied?

    132

    I cannot propose to her at present, but the thought that perhaps she might someday be my wife and that I may be missing that possibility... that possibility... is terrible.

    137

    138

    I considered telling her the tipster was ill and out of service for a few days but common sense dictated that doing so might encourage someone to commit a crime in the tipster's absence.

    145

    I imitated this action, even wearing his spectacles, thinking they might help solve the mystery.

    146

    I knew this conversation deserved more thought on my part but it felt good taking some action, even if it might prove misguided.

    147

    I mean, I might be able to seal the breach I made, if it doesn't get bigger and I can borrow Damian's power.

    I mean, it might be hurtful for your sister to see me using your mothers' things.

    149

    I might have a stroke or a million other things.

    150

    I might have got good limestone within a mile or two and burned it myself, if I had cared to do so.

    151

    I might have seen Mrs. Wiggin, the sweet author of "Birds' Christmas Carol," but she had a dangerous cough and could not come.

    152

    I might meet some tall, dark, handsome man on the way, and you'd chase him off.

    153

    I might possibly invent some excuse for them and him, but I have no time for it.

    154

    I think she was merely directing the comment at you because she thought you might want to know.

    155

    I think you might find it interesting.

    156

    I thought for a moment the woman might cry out but my look froze her to silence.

    157

    I thought I might be able to fix the time setting by trial and error but I was at a loss establishing a location.

    158

    I thought I might just as well describe my pet in order to know it--order, vertebrate; division, quadruped; class, mammalia; genus, felinus; species, cat; individual, Tabby.

    159

    I thought you might be a bit more accommodating.

    160

    I thought you might enjoy a day to yourself afterward.

    161

    I thought you might want to go with Mom and Tammy.

    162

    I thought you might want to stand by.

    163

    I took my time to see what secrets I might glean from their abode.

    164

    I volunteered no more information, nor did he want it, doubly so now that he might be suspected of having ties to us because of the frequent inquiries he made.

    165

    I want to be able to focus on solving this problem, not worrying about what might be said or done to you.

    166

    I was hoping you might have had a revelation.

    167

    I was just thinking I might have betrayed yours.

    168

    I wondered if you might know who he was.

    169

    I wondered if, with his days off, he might be hitting the bottle early.

    170

    I would think if they see the connection they might be leery of taking our calls.

    171

    I'd planned to wait until Betsy and Molly returned from walking Bumpus but I decided if I had to drive back into downtown Keene, I might as well swing by Wheelock Park Campground as it was on the way, at least sort-of.

    172

    I'll see if I can check it out but it might take a while.

    173

    I'm sorry if I seem in awe but might you tell me how you came to so genius a conclusion?

    174

    I'm sure answers might be forthcoming via direct and persuasive questioning.

    175

    I'm trying to guess what he might do; put myself in his boots.

    176

    I'm willing to put my ass on the line and help where it might do some good but I'm just a private citizen.

    177

    If he and his family would live simply, they might all go a-huckleberrying in the summer for their amusement.

    178

    If he had believed in prenuptial agreements, he might have thought her attitude was a good idea.

    179

    If he had lied to her, he might have cheated as well.

    180

    If he would only put an arm around her when they slept, like he used to, she might feel better.

    181

    If her present methods were not working, she might simply decide to take Destiny and run – if Destiny was what she wanted.

    182

    If I go any slower he might die before I get there.

    183

    If it had lasted longer it might have tinged my employments and life.

    184

    If it hadn't been for Katie, she might not have discovered that she was right.

    185

    If it were any other man, she might think it was sexual frustration, but Brandon didn't appear to be interested in any of them.

    186

    If Len was right, it might be a lifetime of hiding.

    187

    If Quinn didn't place him at the hotel, he felt he might locate it himself.

    188

    If she had asked about the building when we passed it, I might have figured she had never seen it, but she pretended she didn't notice.

    189

    If she has no pride for herself she might at least have some for my sake!

    190

    If she wanted revenge, she might simply try to break them up.

    191

    If so, Lori might be hurt somewhere.

    192

    If the driver was hurt, she might be able to help.

    193

    194

    If they presented a united front, Tessa might back up.

    199

    If you think the specialist might be able to help you, I think it would be a good idea to go.

    200

    If you weren't concerned about your own life, you might have thought about your chances of taking someone else with you.

    201

    If you're concerned my little project might impact your security, don't be alarmed.

    202

    If you're lucky you might even spy salmon swimming at the fish ladder, which has access to an underwater viewing area.

    203

    Immediately the Prince and all of his people flocked out of the hall into the street, that they might see what was about to happen.

    204

    208

    In their attitude toward him could still be felt both uncertainty as to who he might be – perhaps a very important person – and hostility as a result of their recent personal conflict with him.

    209

    Instead, I called fisherman Dan Brennan, figuring he might have arose with the dawn.

    210

    Intriguer! she hissed viciously, and tugged with all her might at the portfolio.

    211

    Invest it well and it might get her a couple of years, the way prices keep going up.

    212

    Involuntarily he felt a joyful agitation at the thought of the humiliation of arrogant Austria and that in a week's time he might, perhaps, see and take part in the first Russian encounter with the French since Suvorov met them.

    213

    Involuntarily recalling his wife's past and her relations with Dolokhov, Pierre saw clearly that what was said in the letter might be true, or might at least seem to be true had it not referred to his wife.

    214

    Is it unique or might others perform likewise?

    215

    It crossed her mind that Alex might be more than uncomfortable in these surroundings.

    216

    It crossed her mind that he might trip on the mossy rocks, but he crossed the creek with sure steps.

    217

    It crossed her mind that if she didn't do something, she might lose him, but for the first time the thought wasn't frightening.

    218

    It did cross my mind that Mertz might have something to worry about, though.

    219

    It is hard work but we might get lucky.

    220

    It killed me, knowing we might remain here, doing nothing, and not knowing what was happening to Betsy and Molly.

    221

    It looks like it might get bad.

    222

    It might be a bit pricey, but the food here is definitely worth every penny.

    223

    It might be a good idea to tell Len or Howard about it.

    224

    It might be innocent to him, but it was far from that for her.

    225

    It might be the last trip for all of us.

    226

    It might be trivial, but it was an integral part of their marriage.

    227

    228

    It might get the pot boiling a bit.

    229

    It might have done damage inside.

    230

    It might make him feel less threatened.

    231

    It might make me a few minutes late meeting with Jackson but all the more time for Brennan to speak with him first.

    232

    It never occurred to her that he might be embarrassed when he found out.

    233

    It seemed that from such a basis of truth and frankness as the poor weak-headed pauper had laid, our intercourse might go forward to something better than the intercourse of sages.

    234

    It sounds like I might be able to work something out.

    235

    It suddenly occurred to me that he might make a delightful pet; so I seized him by the tail with both hands and carried him home.

    236

    It takes time we don't have, it won't fool the Indians, and you're raising dust they might see.

    237

    It was a singular experience that long acquaintance which I cultivated with beans, what with planting, and hoeing, and harvesting, and threshing, and picking over and selling them--the last was the hardest of all--I might add eating, for I did taste.

    238

    It was clear she'd overheard a lot of information and as I was fearful she might confide in someone else, I admitted to her that Howie was the person the world was seeking, the so-called psychic tipster.

    239

    It was some distance from the farm house and he thought he might not get to it before it left.

    240

    It was the first time he had lifted her since the stabbing, and it occurred to her that he might strain his wound.

    241

    It wasn't something she was looking forward to, but it might be helpful.

    242

    It's bad enough that it might fry my brain.

    243

    It's so nice not to listen to police sirens and taxies honking their horns but I'm afraid we might have woken Howie up earlier.

    244

    Josh's sister had made a few comments to indicate that she thought Josh might have ended his life purposely because he still loved Carmen.

    245

    Just think; they might have been real people you were seeing.

    246

    Karataev looked at Pierre with his kindly round eyes now filled with tears, evidently wishing him to come near that he might say something to him.

    247

    Keep it up and I might decide to withdraw my invitation.

    248

    Looking at his cold face, as he sat like a stern schoolmaster who was prepared to wait awhile for an answer, Pierre felt that every instant of delay might cost him his life; but he did not know what to say.

    249

    Make sure to call ahead and make a reservation or you might not get a seat.

    250

    Many other substitutes might, perhaps, be found.

    251

    Martha exclaimed when I told her Julie had entered the million dollar hunt for Howie and her letter might have fallen into the wrong hands.

    252

    Martha had no siblings and Quinn had no idea of what might have sprouted from his alien family tree.

    253

    Maybe she was right, and if Alex hadn't been such a perfect husband in every other way, she might have done it.

    254

    Maybe she was spooked tonight, but long ago she had learned to listen to that instinct... gut feeling, some might call it.

    255

    Men and boys pulled with all their might; and Putnam and the wolf were drawn out together.

    256

    Might be something else.

    257

    Might do you good to get out of sight, he said, nodding towards the windows.

    258

    Might he be nearly as close to us as Owen Bryce had been?

    259

    Might Howie be faking this business?

    260

    Might it be better?

    261

    Might not the basket, stable-broom, mat-making, corn-parching, linen-spinning, and pottery business have thrived here, making the wilderness to blossom like the rose, and a numerous posterity have inherited the land of their fathers?

    262

    Might there be more to Howie's culpability in his sister's disappearance?

    263

    Might you go too, Alfonso?

    264

    More of where the relationship might lead.

    265

    More than anything she feared lest the confusion she felt might overwhelm her and betray her as soon as she saw him.

    266

    Most of these people have other jobs and obligations, so without something like Etsy, they might not be able to enter into these trades.

    267

    My friends thought we might have one or two pupils in our own home, thereby securing to me the advantage of being helpful to others without any of the disadvantages of a large school.

    268

    My stomach knotted with the knowledge this might be our last chance.

    269

    Nations can do this by acquiring enough military might that an attempted land grab would cost their neighbors more than they would get if successful.

    270

    Naw. He said Julie never talks about that old stuff and my guess is he doesn't want to open a can that might be messy.

    271

    Neither he nor she said a word about what "Natasha nursing him" might mean, but thanks to this letter Nicholas suddenly became almost as intimate with the princess as if they were relations.

    272

    No one knows what the mother might do.

    273

    No wonder the cavalry wanted you bad enough to pay you twice what they thought Pete might pay.

    274

    Not by a single word had Nicholas alluded to the fact that Prince Andrew's relations with Natasha might, if he recovered, be renewed, but Princess Mary saw by his face that he knew and thought of this.

    275

    Now that he was already an officer and a wounded hero, would it be right to remind him of herself and, as it might seem, of the obligations to her he had taken on himself?

    276

    Now, let's see how this might come about.

    277

    Now, through happenstance I learn of a way this heartache might be sometimes prevented.

    278

    Now, with Quinn's interest piqued, we were a committed pack of five dedicated to seek answers, wherever they might lie.

    279

    Occasionally he glanced behind him, as if searching for someone, or something, that might be watching.

    280

    Of all the coddling he'd accused Sofi and Bianca of doing, he'd been working hard to protect Darian from anything that might force him to grow into his powers.

    281

    Of course he is right there," said Countess Mary, "but he forgets that we have other duties nearer to us, duties indicated to us by God Himself, and that though we might expose ourselves to risks we must not risk our children."

    282

    On the other hand, if he wanted to harm her, he might snatch the stick from her and use it as a weapon against her.

    283

    On the other hand, if you abandoned the wagons and rode the mules, you might be able to keep ahead of the Indians.

    284

    One has suggested, that if such a "leach-hole" should be found, its connection with the meadow, if any existed, might be proved by conveying some colored powder or sawdust to the mouth of the hole, and then putting a strainer over the spring in the meadow, which would catch some of the particles carried through by the current.

    285

    One might have expected to find YouTube making its cameo in the earlier "communication" section, but I deliberately moved it here.

    286

    One of the players said he hoped he might be trusted.

    287

    One of them might have even been responsible for Annie's murder.

    288

    One woman want's to write a book about it, but frankly, so might I one day.

    289

    Outdoor enthusiasts might prefer another park because this parks northern border abuts the county landfill.

    290

    Owing to the terrible uproar and the necessity for concentration and activity, Tushin did not experience the slightest unpleasant sense of fear, and the thought that he might be killed or badly wounded never occurred to him.

    291

    Owing to various diplomatic considerations the Russian armies--just those which might have destroyed his prestige--do not appear upon the scene till he is no longer there.

    292

    Perhaps he was really sitting on a wagon, but it might very well be that he was not sitting on a wagon but on a terribly high tower from which, if he fell, he would have to fall for a whole day or a whole month, or go on falling and never reach the bottom.

    293

    Perhaps I might have done the same!... thought Princess Mary.

    294

    Perhaps it might be called Yellow Pine Lake, from the following circumstance.

    295

    Perhaps, if you would send a copy of this to the head of the Cambridge School, it might enlighten his mind on a few subjects, on which he seems to be in total darkness just now....

    296

    Personally, the thought we might work together in one location, absent the hectic schedule presently exhausting us, made me giddy and set my mind a-tumble with possibilities.

    297

    Pierre smiled in his good-natured way as if afraid for his companion's sake that the latter might say something he would afterwards regret.

    298

    Prince Vasili had come to the conclusion that it was necessary to throw this bone--a bill for thirty thousand rubles--to the poor princess that it might not occur to her to speak of his share in the affair of the inlaid portfolio.

    299

    Quinn added, We didn't want to wake him, or be talking about him while he might overhear.

    300

    Rainier, which might inspire you to a little post-meal climbing.

    301

    Saddle a mule for each person; pack all the supplies you might need on the extra mules and burn the rest of the supplies.

    302

    Saying that might go further toward getting him to forget the kidnapping and murder and going on with his life.

    303

    Separating might increase the risks for some, but it would reduce the risk of everyone being captured.

    304

    She could have asked, but that might tip her hand.

    305

    She could have left then, and might have if curiosity hadn't gotten the best of her.

    306

    She couldn't argue that point, but Alex might regain consciousness and she wanted to be there if he did.

    307

    She drops $300 on Google ads before realizing it might not be a great fit.

    308

    She felt that she could not understand them however much she might think about them.

    309

    She glanced up at Yancey, but he gave no indication he might give her any privacy.

    310

    She had been making out with a man who might be involved in drug trafficking.

    311

    She had come prepared for such an emergency, but any delay might prove embarrassing.

    312

    She made the letters rapidly, and I gave her the cake, which she ate in a great hurry, thinking, I suppose, that I might take it from her.

    313

    She might as well get some rest.

    314

    She might be getting over him, but the idea of running into him in town was particularly disturbing.

    315

    She might even begin to forgive her sinful daughter.

    316

    She might have guessed about your abilities and limitations.

    317

    She might have lost the baby anyway, but the way he treated her couldn't have helped.

    318

    She offered to watch Destiny overnight and Alex said that might be a good idea.

    319

    She recognized tips came in all over the country; giving rise to her feeling there might be many different tipsters.

    320

    She sat up and reached for her robe, wondering who might be visiting at this time in the morning.

    321

    She saw his face, heard his voice, repeated his words and her own, and sometimes devised other words they might have spoken.

    322

    She showed me how very foolish it would be for me to pursue a four years' course of study at Radcliffe, simply to be like other girls, when I might better be cultivating whatever ability I had for writing.

    323

    She thought about bringing Jonathan to see him, but it might frighten him.

    324

    She thought one might be Jule, but the energies faded in and out too quickly to tell.

    325

    She thought you might be upset.

    326

    She turned away, and then, as if fearing he might take her words as meant to move him to pity, looked at him with an apprehensive glance of inquiry.

    327

    She wanted to tell him how much she missed him - how much she wished he was there, but he might jump in the truck and travel dangerous highways.

    328

    She watched for soft areas where a wagon might get stuck.

    329

    She, seeing herself surrounded by such brilliant and polite young men, beamed with satisfaction, try as she might to hide it, and perturbed as she evidently was each time her husband moved in his sleep behind her.

    330

    Show me where we might eat.

    331

    Since one cannot have everything, seed makers invariably will make trade-offs that might be different than what I would make.

    332

    So one might have thought that regarding this period of the campaign the historians, who attributed the actions of the mass to the will of one man, would have found it impossible to make the story of the retreat fit their theory.

    333

    So you might suspect the tax rate is only 1 percent.

    334

    Sofi claimed Jenn would have a protector, and there was no need to worry about what Jonny might do.

    335

    Some might argue this is not in and of itself a force for peace.

    336

    Some might call it luck, but she knew better.

    337

    Some might say, Hunger is awful.

    338

    Some might think Dulce didn't know what she was missing, but Carmen suspected she did.

    339

    Some of the peasants said that these new arrivals were Russians and might take it amiss that the mistress was being detained.

    340

    Sort of a flash-back you might call it.

    341

    Soup was out of the question; it might as well have been a million miles away in the kitchen.

    342

    Start with gathering blankets, hot water, a first-aid kit, any sort of bandages they might have.

    343

    Still, Alex might be getting worse.

    344

    Still, if she could get into that building and find out, it might ease her mind.

    345

    Still, it might help.

    346

    Such a one might make a good shepherd's dog, but is far from being the Good Shepherd.

    347

    Swimming, biking, climbing, shopping, and eating are just a few experiences that you might try on your vacation.

    348

    Talking about it might help her, but they had already talked the subject lifeless.

    349

    Tell Brennan he has carte blanch to give us everything within reason we might need.

    350

    That flank march might not only have failed to give any advantage to the Russian army, but might in other circumstances have led to its destruction.

    351

    That might be true, but there was no point in working at becoming a spendthrift simply because he had money.

    352

    That might be true.

    353

    That might explain the way he stuck his head inside the car.

    354

    That might happen a few times.

    355

    That might prove interesting, don't you think?

    356

    That monster might have still been in the house!

    357

    That's not as far out as you might think.

    358

    That's when it first crossed my mind that you might be the one.

    359

    The adjutant, also, had evidently had no evil intent though he might have refrained from coming in.

    360

    The bar boasts a selection of imported sake, shouchu, plum liqueur and beer sure to help comfort any achy muscles you might have from your active day.

    361

    The battery in the lantern might be dead or the fall might have broken it.

    362

    The count ordered his carriage that he might drive to Sokolniki, and sat in his study with folded hands, morose, sallow, and taciturn.

    363

    The countess knew this, but what it might be she did not know, and this alarmed and tormented her.

    364

    The damn thing might as well had a sign on it, saying, hey, coppers, here I am!

    365

    The day after her party the governor's wife came to see Malvintseva and, after discussing her plan with the aunt, remarked that though under present circumstances a formal betrothal was, of course, not to be thought of, all the same the young people might be brought together and could get to know one another.

    366

    The detective seemed unconvinced until I told him John Luke Grasso wanted something from my friend and he might have contacted him.

    367

    The doctor said there was no reason for him to remain in a coma and he might wake up any day.

    368

    The dust storm might work in their favor, but it would only increase their discomfort.

    369

    The guy might have snatched the child himself.

    370

    The handsome open face of the man who might perhaps be her husband absorbed all her attention.

    371

    The more I thought about it, the more I felt Quinn, Martha and baby Claire might be gone.

    372

    The night he died, I called because I thought my mother might have stopped by the house.

    373

    The officer appeared abashed, as though he understood that one might think of how many men would be missing tomorrow but ought not to speak of it.

    374

    The one that might one day consider him an equal worth trusting with her heart.

    375

    The only complaint that can be levied at this restaurant is that the prices are higher than one might expect for such simple fare.

    376

    The only person that we supposed might possibly have read the story to Helen was her friend, Mrs. Hopkins, whom she was visiting at the time in Brewster.

    377

    The only thing she might be able to contest was the will.

    378

    The people only gave him power that he might rid them of the Bourbons and because they saw that he was a great man.

    379

    The post office might know something.

    380

    The regimental commander was afraid he might be blamed for this and did not answer.

    381

    The Russians might fall on his left wing, might break through his center, he himself might be killed by a stray cannon ball.

    382

    The teachers at the Wright-Humason School were always planning how they might give the pupils every advantage that those who hear enjoy--how they might make much of few tendencies and passive memories in the cases of the little ones--and lead them out of the cramping circumstances in which their lives were set.

    383

    The thought that the bull might have starved made her stomach turn.

    384

    The way you tell it, it sounds nearly impossible for us to catch him if he learns everything we can and might do.

    385

    Then he thought what a pretty picture might be made of his sister's sweet face and little hands.

    386

    Then his lips and tongue moved, sounds came, and he began to speak, gazing timidly and imploringly at her, evidently afraid that she might not understand.

    387

    Then that person might choose to publish those results and others could verify them.

    388

    Then we will list the things that might derail us on the way to that future.

    389

    Then when she learned about Tessa's son, she was furious because he might inherit - even though I hadn't said anything to father.

    390

    There is on one to connect me to New Hampshire though this little group who thought they were so clever hiding in that silly business in Keene might suspect that the one they hunted is now hunting them!

    391

    There they might live in peace and safety while all the country round was overrun by rude and barbarous men.

    392

    There was no good way to say it, so she might as well get to the facts.

    393

    There was nothing she could do about it until he got home, so she might as well not think about it.

    394

    There's a chance it might be the vehicle we're looking for.

    395

    There's a strong indication they might have been wrong and he was innocent.

    396

    These babies might not be in her womb, but they did belong to Alex.

    397

    These sayings were prepared in the inner laboratory of his mind in a portable form as if intentionally, so that insignificant society people might carry them from drawing room to drawing room.

    398

    They couldn't keep the foal as a stud, but she might be able to trade it for a mare when it was older.

    399

    They forgot that the frightened face and the figure could not be altered, and that however they might change the setting and adornment of that face, it would still remain piteous and plain.

    400

    They got wind there might be someone out there in the nether world with incredible abilities they could commandeer.

    401

    They left the bull where it lay, reasoning that if they removed it, the bear might go hunting fresh meat.

    402

    They looked, as they thought, in every place where the lambs might have taken shelter.

    403

    They might be the ones that sent the cavalry our way.

    404

    They might even own foreign currencies the same way.

    405

    They might have considered her an innocent bystander in her relationship with Allen, but being on the sideline again would, at minimum, make them suspicious.

    406

    They might instinctively feel her terrified regard.

    407

    They might not look alike?

    408

    They said his pulse rate has increased over night, which might mean he is trying to wake up.

    409

    They said it might be some sort of rare blood disorder.

    410

    They still seemed to think that he might wake up at any time, though.

    411

    They suggest other products a customer might be interested in.

    412

    They thought that pictures might take one's mind away from things that were better or more useful.

    413

    They were happy with each other, and whatever Destiny might have been born, she was a Barnett now.

    414

    They were lined up as far as the eye could see on the Apian Way, the main road through Rome, as a warning to other slaves who might consider rebellion.

    415

    They'll maintain a public web site you might peruse occasionally but they'll know nothing of your group or what you're doing.

    416

    They're wild and might not even let us feed them.

    417

    Think of the good we might be doing!

    418

    This is simply another form of trade, so some might accuse me of double counting some of my forty-three reasons war will end.

    419

    This might be a common situation for him, but it was horrifying for her.

    420

    This might be a good time to ask.

    421

    This might be the adoption of commercial standards as well as the creation and operation of a civil court system and laws.

    422

    This might be the last time we see each other.

    423

    This might be the most difficult decision she would ever make.

    424

    This might have been taken as an expression of sorrow and devotion, or of weariness and hope of resting before long.

    425

    This might hurt a little.

    426

    This spending of the best part of one's life earning money in order to enjoy a questionable liberty during the least valuable part of it reminds me of the Englishman who went to India to make a fortune first, in order that he might return to England and live the life of a poet.

    427

    This was a relationship she might want to pursue if he wasn't involved in something illegal.

    428

    This was an airy and unplastered cabin, fit to entertain a travelling god, and where a goddess might trail her garments.

    429

    This was one more example of Howie turning away from anything that might prove uncomfortable.

    430

    Those two might kill each other without a referee.

    431

    To ask Brennan directly might lead to us so I made up a story we were checking old cases to see if someone released from prison might have returned to this type of crime.

    432

    To him the club entrusted the arrangement of the festival in honor of Bagration, for few men knew so well how to arrange a feast on an open-handed, hospitable scale, and still fewer men would be so well able and willing to make up out of their own resources what might be needed for the success of the fete.

    433

    To his right, walked the woman he might marry – Connie Spencer.

    434

    Try as I might, I couldn't fix the time or the location anywhere close to the present where we wanted to be.

    435

    Under other circumstances, she might have enjoyed having the upper hand, but right now she didn't feel much like playing games.

    436

    Was he actually concerned about the fact that she might have been killed, or that his hideout might have been discovered in a search for her body?

    437

    Was there one of them in particular you think might have been responsible for Annie's murder?

    438

    Was this break in and shooting a coincidental event or might someone else have been as clever as I at tracking down this nefarious tipster?

    439

    Watch yourself; you're public and he might very well target you or your people.

    440

    We asked if there was anyone around who might still be living who would remember that far back.

    441

    We considered the session might take much longer than usual.

    442

    We conveyed the meager information to a national tip line, fearing it might be too little too late.

    443

    We didn't let on to this guy, Jude Bryce, about the tip but he was a close neighbor and the parents suspected he might be involved so he was in our radar.

    444

    We don't know what he might have dug up.

    445

    We had hurried through the dish-washing after luncheon, in order that we might have as long an afternoon as possible for the story.

    446

    We knew that beyond the border of our Eden men were making history by the sweat of their brows when they might better make a holiday.

    447

    We might always drive about together!

    448

    We might as well omit to study Nature because she is old.

    449

    We might have done something to help you.

    450

    We might pay a premium to support a family farm.

    451

    We paid for the swimming pool so we might as well use it.

    452

    We think he might have some natural ability.

    453

    We went down a hundred and twenty feet in an elevator that we might see the violent eddies and whirlpools in the deep gorge below the Falls.

    454

    We were concerned that his death might be a conduit to revealing the problem.

    455

    We will see how this might come to pass—but first, let's ask whether it must.

    456

    Well, one day King Frost was trying to think of some good that he could do with his treasure; and suddenly he concluded to send some of it to his kind neighbour, Santa Claus, to buy presents of food and clothing for the poor, that they might not suffer so much when King Winter went near their homes.
