almost angTily:

can help us with some suggestion, now
that you are here?"
He was a tal man, rather spare and
thin for his height, from which a slight
stoop detracted little. In spite Of his
easy old shooting suit his appearance
did not suggest the country gentleman.
or the man of outdoor pursuits Rather
he had something Of the bookish, student
air. The grief which had crushed mis-
wife into at least outward quietude seem

frame. He could not sit, he could not
stand still. His feet uneasily shifted, as

while he hastily recounted to Conyers all
that mad been done, his voice harsh with
