However, he contrived at length to graduate, and returned to his home at Lowell. It was now that my acquaintance with him for the first time became intimate, commencing at my father's house. I thought him the queerest looking specimen of humanity I had ever seen. He was about five feet eight inches in height, with short, crooked legs; a full, pale face, bearing the most decided marks of intellect and indomitable character; the top of his head bald, and his back hair falling in a long, light brown cascade far below his coat collar! added to which, he was most cur

Subsequently these remarkable organs of vision assumed another appearance. Shortly after the French operation for the strabismus was introduced into this country, a distinguished surgeon of Lowell persuaded Butler to submit to it; but one optic having been set right, he positively refused to have the other touched, declaring that the agony he suffered was too great to be endured again, so that at present the expression of his eyes is decidedly striking, not to say comical.
