  • Occupation Apothecary

    “The usual cut and dry apothecary,” in Enfield’s words.

  • Described as Of no particular age and colour, with a strong Edinburgh accent and about as emotional as a bagpipe — yet sick and white with the desire to kill the man.

  • Alive

    Arrives on the scene — the girl had been sent to fetch him.

  • Acquaintance of Richard Enfield

    Together they threaten the man with scandal, sit up the night in Enfield’s chambers, and take the cheque to the bank.
