His face was shaven smoothly, save for a long gray mustache with an upward curve.

While the people about him talked in a miscellaneous fashion, he did not join them, and his manner did not invite approach even in those easy times.

Without a crumb having fallen on clothing or floor, he resumed his seat and gazed straight before him.
Harry's interest in the stranger increased.
