Genial

On the article ” Jury of her Peers ” the word genial was used on characterizing Mr.Peter’s job. The word genial means to be warmly pleasant or comfortable based on dictionary.com. The word genial is found in the line ” Mr.Peters a sheriff- heavy man who is genial with the law-bidding” .I found the word genial to be interesting because when reading it at first I thought they were describing Mr.Peters but the author wanted it to be based on his work.
