Excerpt from The Greater Power
Nasmyth was a tall man, apparently under thirty, and leanly muscular, as we're his companions, for those who swing the axe from dawn to dusk in that wilderness seldom put on flesh. His bronzed face was also lean, and a trifle worn. Considering his occupation, it was, perhaps, too finely chiselled, and there was a certain elusive suggestion Of refinement in it. He had clear blue eyes, and the hair beneath his battered fur cap was brown. For the rest, he wore a black leather jacket with several rents in it, ragged duck trousers, and long boots. His companions were the usual Bush choppers - simple, strong-armed men of kindly nature - and Nasmyth was quite aware that they had undertaken most of his Share in the work during the last few hours.
