Excerpt from Red Jacket: The Last of the Senecas Seated on a splint-bottomed chair, high-backed and placed near the window which opened on the street, his elbow resting at ease upon the sill, was a man about forty years of age, of swarthy com plexion, and with black eyes and hair, the latter showing a few streaks of silver. He was below the ordinary stature, quite stout, displaying a double chin, with smooth-shaven face, except a small tuft of whiskers in front of each ear. The forehead was so high, and the hair so scant on the crown, as to indicate approaching baldness. He was in the uniform of a major-general of the American army, with blue coat and yellow facings, double-breasted, and fastened to the broad, open collar. Above this was the high stock, encircling the throat, and the shoulders were ornamented with gold epaulettes, indicating the high rank of the officer. His three-cornered hat lay on the oor beside his chair, and his buff gloves had been ung carelessly into it. The usual sword was upon his left hip, and the boots reached almost to his knees, where the bottom of the buff breeches were buttoned.
