Jacque Durant ´s house and office looks like many other middle-class homes constructed in North American urban centers in the early twentieth century. It is a two-storey, brick house with a hipped roof and dormer window, pronounced chimney, generous setback from the street, contrasting materials, and careful detailing. The upper floor houses the doctor´s family. The building stands out from the other houses for the warm tone of the red brick, the rough texture of the stucco trim and the manicured lawn. Jacque Durant´s working place is on the ground floor. It is a two-room office, comprehending a waiting room and examination room. The waiting room has a few chairs and a spittoon for the tobacco chewing.
Durant welcomes the investigators in his office. The room consists of an examination table and the doctor’s desk, which is cluttered with books, papers, and bottles. It also displays the doctor´s library, microscope, diplomas, pictures of eminent professional friends and teachers, and other things that are associated with his medical studies and career. There´s a whole skeleton in plain view, probably because it exhibits Durant´s knowledge and interest in anatomy.
Jaque Durant is a Canadian sturdy mid-age physician. His hair are silver and his face more wrinkled than one would expect at his age. He has the bright eyes of a careful observer, who seeks to find small details to satisfy his fussiness. He speaks with a strong French accent, he does not care to mask, as if it were an identity trait. He uses technical and analytical words even for conversations supposed to be informal.
