At the appearance of this strange creature a momentary silence fell on the crowd.
Two men were working their way slowly up the Dene. They were the shepherd, Job Nutt, and his second. And their dogs followed them closely to heel. They had just set out a new bait for the sheep on the vetches lower down, and were making for home.

Mr. Oldacre is a bachelor, fifty-two years of age, and lives in Deep Dene House, at the Sydenham end of the road of that name. He has had the reputation of being a man of eccentric habits, secretive and retiring.
