Mortimer Tregennis

Brother of Brenda, Owen and George Tregennis.

A thin, dark, spectacled man, with a stoop which gave the impression of actual, physical deformity.
An independent gentleman, who increased the clergyman’s scanty resources by taking rooms in his large, straggling house.

A sad-faced, introspective man, sitting with averted eyes, brooding apparently upon his own affairs.

He was a sly, subtle, scheming man.

“When I think of Mortimer Tregennis, with the foxy face and the small shrewd, beady eyes behind the spectacles, he is not a man whom I should judge to be of a particularly forgiving disposition.”
(Sherlock Holmes)
