Glad to know I'm not the only one out here whose read Self Reliance by Ralph

88 Westy "Billy Bones"

"I remember observing the contrast (between Dr. Livesey and Billy Bones); the neat, bright doctor,
with his powder as white as snow and his bright, black eyes and pleasant manners, with that
filthy, heavy, bleared scarecrow of a pirate of ours, sitting, far gone in rum, with his arms on
the table."
