As for the gold ring and the tweed suit, they disappeared into space when my placard went up, you may be sure of that, and a felon can paint his face.

But his eyes and eyebrows will do him.

They are the mark of a jail-bird.

I am a visiting justice, and have often noticed the peculiarity.

Draw me his eyebrows, and we will photograph them in Derby; and my detectives shall send copies to Scotland Yard and all the convict prisons.
