A short, stout man with gray hair, wearing black clothes and a white tie. A solicitor from the Green-Douglas-Knight Firm. He was a friend of Arna's grandfather and handled some of his business affairs. As the executor of Old Isaacs's will, he met Arna at King's Cross Station to hand over the factory land deed. He seemed satisfied that Arna appeared to be a decent and tidy young man who would take care of the inheritance.
