The stationmaster, however, was there himself, with an inspector in attendance. A dark, thickset man, wearing a long travelling ulster and a Homburg hat, and carrying in his hand a brown leather dressingcase, across which was painted in black letters the name MR. JOHN P. DUNSTER, was standing a few yards away, smoking a long cigar, and, to all appearance absorbed in studying the advertisements which decorated the grimy wall on the other side of the single track. A couple of porters were seated upon a barrow which contained one solitary portmanteau. There were no signs of other passengers, no other luggage. As a matter of fact, according to the timetable, no train was due to leave the station or to arrive at it, on this particular platform, for several hours.
