He is the chief of this place.",A tall dark-haired youth in a gray suit and overcoat, who had been standing with his back to them a short distance away, turned and showed a pleasant, homely face with two very lively eyes and a wide, firm mouth.,Here his laughter became a series of concussions decidedly menacing to his well-being.,"Still, sometimes, you know, it is awkward to adhere to the very letter of the law," says Jack Rodney, easily.
