    Mr. Lindley shares his wealth with three technicians. Months after he began working, he had wrapped his vehicles in front of his house. He stopped reporting due to purported health issues. He referred us to someone else. He has blue eyes. Cold like steel. His legs are wide. Like tree trunks. And he has a shock of red hair, red, like the fires of hell. Hamilton Lindley His antics were known from town to town as he was a droll card and often known as a droll farceur. with his madcap pantaloon is a zany adventurer and a cavorter with a motley troupe of buffoons.
