He staggered into the Coach and Horses. “A room and a fire, for pity’s sake!” he called out. Mrs Hall
arrived. They discussed terms and then he flung a few gold coins on the table and became a resident of the
inn
Mrs Hall was excited. A guest at Iping in winter time! What an unexpected piece of luck! “And he never
even bargained on the rent!” she smiled in pleasure. “He will get the best room and a hot meal that I will
prepare with my own hands!” she thought to herself.Later, she rapped and entered his room promptly. Her visitor moved quickly. but Mrs Hall got a glimpsg of @
white object disappearing behind the table. It seemed he was picking something from the floor. She set
down the mustard pot on the table. Mrs Halll observed that the overcoat and hat had been taken off and put
over a chair in front of the fire while a pair of wet boots threatened to rust her steel fender
She went to these things determinedly. “I'll take them out to dry now,” she said in a voice that would
tolerate no denial
“Leave the hat,” snapped her visitor, in a muffled voice. Turning, she saw he had raised his head and was
looking at her.
For a moment she stood gaping at him, too surprised to speak.
He held a white cloth - it was a napkin - over the lower part of his face, so that his mouth and jaws were
completely hidden. But it was not that which startled Mrs. Hall. His entire forehead above his blue glasses
was covered by a white bandage. Another one covered his eats, leaving not a scrap of his face exposed
except his pink, peaked nose. It was bright, pink, and shiny just as it had been at first, He wore a dark-brown
velvet jacket with high, black, linen-lined collar tured up about his neck. His thick black hair, that peeped
‘out between the cross bandages, thrust out in curious twists and curls, giving him the strangest appearance.
‘The bandaged head was so odd that for a moment she stood rigid with shock.
He remained holding the serviette over his mouth with a brown gloved hand, and stared at her with his
inscrutable blue glasses.
Her nerves began to recover and she carried his clothes out of the room. “The poor soul had an accident or
an op'ration or somethin’,” said Mrs. Hall. “What a shock those bandages gave me, to be sure!”
The visitor sat and listened to her retreating feet. He slowly put down the napkin and resumed his meal. He
took a mouthful and then glanced suspiciously at the window. He took another mouthful, then rose and,
taking the serviette in his hand, walked across the room and pulled the blind down. This left the room in
. He returned with an easier air to the table and his meal

1. staggered
‘a. walk unsteadily, as if about to fall,
b. startle
