Note:—It is interesting to compare Featherstonhaugh's characterization of Armfield, which is: "I looked steadily at the fellow, and recollecting him, found no longer any difficulty in accounting for such a compound of everything vulgar and revolting and totally without education. I had now a key to his manner and the expression of his countenance."—Featherstonhaugh: Excursion Through the Slave States, Vol. I., p. 167.
