"Yep, an' this here animal settin' in that gap, what you think it is?" They resumed their walk. When they had reached the bridge they found old Mr Greyquill, leaning over the rail, and gazing with intentness, with a sort of lifting leer which could not be defined as a smile, though it was like the shadow of one, in the direction of Old Harbour. This person was not used to address either of the gentlemen on meeting them in the public streets. They were accustomed to nod in silence.

But Croaker shook his head and backed away, emitting a string of unintelligible utterances. "Gillies! Did you see him?".
