 They were both dressed in long black robes. Each wore a large gold cross hanging from a gold chain round his neck. Both gentlemen had black beards and black hair. Father Somi wore a black pillbox hat. The Metropolitan wore his black hat shaped like an onion and he carried a long staff. This staff and his onion shaped hat showed that he was the Metropolitan Bishop. They didn't just wear their hats when they went out. They wore them all the time.
