## Summary

He was English to the bone. English in aspect, attitude, attire, and accent. English of the most pronounced and impressive type--but impressive upon as keen and thoroughbred an American observer as the famous New York detective chiefly because of the insipid and mildly obtrusive aristocracy that stuck out all over him.
