John.A.Pescud is a travelling salesman of a glass company. He is
not a particularly good looking man. He is bald with a wide smile.
Pescud believes that a man should marry a girl from his own background.
He hates best sellers and criticises them for being unrealistic.
Ironically, when we come to know about how he met his wife, Jessie, we
are forced to think that is a cynic and a hypocrite. He believed that a
person should marry another person if only they have equal backgrounds.
However, being from the working class, he dared to propose to a
beautiful lady who belonged to an aristocratic family. In short, we
realise that Pescud's life itself is a best seller.

Pescud- a small man with a wide smile, is very calculating and shrewd businessman who uses his personal charm to impress people and promote his business. He would have been any company's delight- an excellent salesman who considers his company and its products best in the world. It is his pushing and enterprising nature that forces even his employers to raise his salary twice in a couple of years.
