Servile Old Man

Servile Old Man is a minor character in William Morris's classic novel "News from Nowhere; Or, An Epoch of Rest" (1890). An old man who appears 'strangely contrasting' with the joyous people of the future. He looks old (but William realizes he's probably only around fifty), with a rugged, grimed face, dull, bleared eyes, bent body, thin calves, and dragging feet. His clothing is a mixture of 'dirt and rags.' He exhibits both goodwill and 'much servility.'
