Excerpt from Between Two Masters ON a warm October evening Amos K. Phelps and his brother's son Harvey sat and smoked in the great dining-room of Amos's house on Common wealth Avenue. The uncle was a man of something over fifty, slight in build, very handsome and dignified in his evening dress, hair already quite gray, skin as dark as an In dian's, eyes dark, shrewd, penetrating, the face smooth, except for a soft, gray mustache. The nephew was a young fellow, as dark as his uncle, but of a very different figure, tall, broad-shouldered, stoutly mus cled, making even slight movements with the soft ease of strength. His clean-shaven face was full, the features a trifle heavy, yet by no means unintelligent, and touched with a singularly winning frankness when he smiled.
