Alan Trevor was Hughie’s friend. He was a great painter whose creations were in great demand. He had a strange appearance, with a freckled face and a red ragged beard. He had been very much attracted by Hughie’s personal charm. However, with the passage of time as he knew Hughie better, he started liking him more for his brightness, buoyancy, and generosity; he liked him so much that he had given him the permanent entrée to his studio.
