Garry's shot had pierced the brain right in the forehead, and the animal had evidently died almost instantly. They examined the animal. It was a sort of a pepper-and-salt color with a pencil or streak of black hair extending from the back of the ears.
He was dressed in a pepper-and-salt coat of the Newmarket cut, breeches of corduroy and brown top boots, and had on his head a broad, black, coarse, low-crowned hat. In his left hand he held a heavy whale-bone whip with a brass head. I sat down on a bench nearly opposite to him and the landlord. "Well," said Mr Pritchard; "did you find your way to Llanfair?"

He was a miller, tall, thin, slightly stooping, wore a pepper-and-salt suit of clothes, and might have been about sixty years old when I was ten or twelve. He lived in an ancient house, the first floor of which overhung the street; the rooms were low- pitched and dark. How Bedford folk managed to sleep in them, windows all shut, is incomprehensible.
About fifteen minutes before dinner which had been cooked with bits of wood which Betsey had picked up here and there was ready, Asaph walked into the front yard of his sister's house attired in a complete suit of new clothes, thick and substantial in texture, pepper-and-salt in color, and as long in the legs and arms as the most fastidious could desire.
Immediately upon his arrival home, although his hands seldom touched the fish, he would wash them in a solution of warm water and carbolic acid, and most of the time he changed his suit before dinner, from a salt-and-pepper to a pepper-and-salt, the only sartorial variety in which he ever indulged.

He was a brown, wrinkled old man, with sparse pepper-and-salt whiskers and a parrot-like nose. "Sharper" was written all over his hatchet features; but probably his provincialism and lack of book education had kept him from being a very dangerous villain. "I wanter know!" exclaimed Rufus. "So you're Tingley's lady? Wal! do you take charge here?" "Oh, no," laughed Mrs. Tingley.

'Then, said the second tailor, 'if they are not black and white, no doubt they are red and brown, like my father's Sunday coat. 'Wrong again, said the Princess; 'now let the third speak. I see he thinks he knows all about it.
When Uncle John came home to dinner he found father and daughter seated happily together in a loving embrace, their faces wreathed with ecstatic smiles that were wonderful to behold. Uncle John was radiant in a brand new pepper-and-salt suit of clothes that fitted his little round form perfectly.
