Like the affable countryman he was, he smiled a "good morning" to the warder at the top of the dock steps, and made a little pow to Judge Wasley when he faced him. He was smiling in a pleased way when he pleaded guilty to_ the charges, and his smile broadened into a laugh when he gave his last place of abode as "Melbourne Gaol."

In fact, he was literally "smilin' through" the whole piece.
