More Sad Stories Than All the Sunshine Can Make Bright

About thirty paces from me I saw a gigantic man with a tattered blanket wrapped about his shoulders, and a gun in his hand. His head was bare, and he had little other clothing than a pair of ragged breeches and boots. His hair and beard were tipped with gray, and his purely African features were cast in a mold betokening, in the highest degree, strength and energy. The expression of the face was of mingled fear and ferocity and every movement betrayed a life of habitual caution and watchfulness.

David Hunter Strother, journalist, writing for Harper’s Magazine in 1856
