Stoop-shouldered man came in. He was dressed in blue jeans and he carried a big push-broom in his left hand.”-Candy “A powerful, big-stomached man came into the bunkhouse. His head still dripped from rubbing and dousing.”-Carlson “A tall man stood in the door way. He held a crushed Stetson hat under his arm while he combed his long, black, damp hair.
