He stood for a moment at the door, his fish-line in his hand, swinging the heavy sinker back and forth. He looked at Trina as she cleared away the breakfast things. "So long," said he, nodding his huge square-cut head. This amiability in the matter of leave taking was unusual.
Much of this is legendary, I know, some of it mere superstition, but I am serious now, Petrie part of it is true." I stared at the square-cut, sun-tanned face; and no trace of a smile lurked about that grim mouth.

Brown was strolling quietly down Broadway toward Twenty-third Street. A short distance behind followed a thick-set man with a square-cut jaw whom I had frequently noticed in Gottlieb's office.
