| His name is John Barsard. He is about forty years old. He’s about five feet nine inches tall. He has black hair and a dark complexion. He’s generally handsome. He has dark eyes; a long, thin, yellow face, and he has a hooked nose that curves toward his left cheek, which gives him a mean look. | |
