There warn't no color in his face, where his face showed; itwas white; not like another man's white, but a white to make a body sick,a white to make a body's flesh crawl—a tree-toad white, a fish-bellywhite. As for his clothes—just rags, that was all. He had one ankleresting on t'other knee; the boot on that foot was busted, and two of histoes stuck through, and he worked them now and then.
