He is such a hard-shell being that he can not put out feelers to his kind . He may have plenty of brains , as Stumm had , but he has the poorest notion of psychology of any of God 's creatures .

After midday we stopped at a station for luncheon . We had a very good meal in the restaurant , and when we were finishing two officers entered . Stumm got up and saluted and went aside to talk to them . Then he came back and made me follow him to a waiting-room , where he told me to stay till he fetched me .
