the black oak of the wainscot. a face
stared in upon us. Around the head
crowned with black skull-cap, fell a
thick growth of white hair that was
saint-like in length and beauty; the
beard was of the like venerable purity
In a man of his apparent age the
cheeks were curiously rosy, while the
hand that held open the door was small
