“A tall man stood in the doorway. He held a crushed Stetson hat under his arm while he combed his long, black, damp hair straight back. Like the others he wore blue jeans and a short denim jacket… His hatchet face was ageless. He might have been 35 or 50… His hands, large and lean, were as delicate in action as those of a temple dancer.” Slim Candy “… a tall stoop-shouldered old man came in. He was dressed in blue jeans and carried a big push-broom in his left hand…he pointed with his right arm and out of the sleeve came a round stick-like wrist, but no hand” In one colour highlight any similarities In one colour highlight any differences How do the differences here reflect their differences on the ranch?
