Excerpt from Mixed Faces

The first intimation the Judge had that some other person dared to look like him was when, as he strode into the lobby of the Media City hotel in the best city in his state, a grinning porter rushed up, seized his suit case and said affably, Righto, Old Sporti Got here just in time this trip and I'll send your cases to number two sam ple room, and open 'em up if you'll gimme the burglar's kit. The room you kicked for last month - remember.

The Hon. J. Woodworth-granger, who from force of habit never said anything until he had formulated the complete sentence and then edited it, and having a mind that moved with the frantic speed and wild agility of a tractor engine pulling a carload of coal, glared ponderously at the porter who took it as a joke. Gollop some times assumed that prodigious seriousness when about to pass out specimens of his best humor.
