Against the opposite wall sat a red-faced little man with an elaborate mustache and a bald head and a happy grin. He sat alone at a tilted round table and played with a plate of soup.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
