His hair was long and tangled and greasy, and hung down, and you could see it in his eyes shining through like he was behind the vines. It was all black, no gray; so was hs long , mixed- up whiskers. There warn't no color in his face, where his face showed; it was white; not like another man's white, but a white to make a body sick, a white to make a body's flesh crawl--just rags, that was all" (28).
