This absence of neckwear, coupled with the fact that the lower part of his face was sprouting with a heavy growth of beard, gave him a peculiarly villainous appearance: He was seated on a chair, his head sunk on his breast.

Quite a small matter!"

"Cheer up, man!" said Dawes, touched with momentary pity. "It's no good being in the mopes, you know." "What do they do if you try to bolt?" whispered Kirkland.
