dabbler

In Dornan's telling, Clinton was a "self-indulgent hedonist and phony," a dabbler in drugs, a letch.

Unfortunate Dabbler, now upon his mettle, declared that "should he ever want satisfaction, his solicitor should get it for him."

Now Dabbler was a widower; he was not of prepossessing appearance, and his h's troubled him, but Dabbler was a warm man.

"To dance implies that a man is glad," and Dabbler was a cheerful-minded fellow enough, but no lady danced with him a second time.

But he did not give in without a struggle, and he fought loyally for the absent Dabbler, but the girls were inexorable.

Joe hated Raymond Copley with all the contempt that an old sportsman has for an ignorant dabbler in the great game.
