Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Gentleman Vagabond, and Some Others I found the major standing in front of Delmonico´s, interviewing a large, bare-headed personage in brown cloth spotted with brass buttons. The major was in search of his very particular friend, Mr. John Hardy of Madison Square, and the personage in brown and brass was rather languidly indicating, by a limp and indecisive forefinger, a route through a section of the city which, correctly followed, would have landed the major in the East River. I knew him by the peculiar slant of his slouch hat, the rosy glow of his face, and the way in which his trousers clung to the curves of his well-developed legs, and ended in a sprawl that half covered his shoes. I recognized, too, a carpetbag, a ninety-nine-cent affair, an "occasion," with galvanized iron clasps and paper-leather sides, - the kind opened with your thumb. The major - or, to be more definite.
