In fact, he was even a teetotaler sometimes-- when it was judicious to be one.
Pudd'n'head Wilson by Twain, Mark View in context
The husband was a teetotaler, there was no other woman, and the conduct complained of was that he had drifted into the habit of winding up every meal by taking out his false teeth and hurling them at his wife, which, you will allow, is not an action likely to occur to the imagination of the average story-teller.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan View in context
He was no teetotaler, and welcomed a stiff nip any time when it was wet work in the boats.
South Sea Tales by London, Jack View in context
