Contextual Overview
9 It was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs happened that day. 10 When they came there to the hill, behold, a band of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came mightily on him, and he prophesied among them. 11 It happened, when all who knew him before saw that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets? 12 One of the same place answered, Who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets? 13 When he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place. 14 Saul's uncle said to him and to his servant, Where went you? He said, To seek the donkeys; and when we saw that they were not found, we came to Samuel. 15 Saul's uncle said, Tell me, Please, what Samuel said to you. 16 Saul said to his uncle, He told us plainly that the donkeys were found. But concerning the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he didn't tell him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Saul's uncle said, c. l On hearing he had been with Samuel, and perceiving so great an alteration in Saul, perhaps he began to suspect something about the kingdom it being what everyone was talking of, and expecting every day to hear from Samuel who should be king, according to the Lord's appointment:
tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you; the earnestness with which he put this question seems to confirm the above conjecture.
