It was\u003cbr\u003ehumble enough, but not more so than the early homes of some who have\u003cbr\u003ebecome great.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe furniture was limited to articles of prime necessity. There was a\u003cbr\u003estove, a table, three chairs, a row of shelves containing a few articles\u003cbr\u003eof crockery and tinware, and a bed in the far corner of the room, on which\u003cbr\u003erested a man with ragged gray beard and hair, a face long and thin, and\u003cbr\u003ecoal-black eyes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was evident he was sick unto death. His parchment-colored skin was\u003cbr\u003ewrinkled; from time to time he coughed so violently as to rack his slight\u003cbr\u003eframe, and his hand, thin and wrinkled, as it rested on the quilt that\u003cbr\u003ecovered him, shook as with palsy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was hard to tell how old the man was. He looked over seventy, but there\u003cbr\u003ewere indications that he had aged prematurely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere was one other person in the room whose appearance contrasted\u003cbr\u003estrongly with that of the old man--a boy of sixteen, with brown hair,\u003cbr\u003eruddy cheeks, hazel eyes, an attractive yet firm and resolute face, and an\u003cbr\u003eappearance of manliness and self-reliance. He was well dressed, and would\u003cbr\u003ehave passed muster upon the streets of a city.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"How do you feel, Uncle Peter?\" he asked as he stood by the bedside.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47182804287728,"sku":"2940013243712","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013243712_p0.jpg?v=1763578307","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013243712","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
