Explanation:

Mr. Hollybrass' look of appeal is calling for a change in attitude towards Captain Jaggery's lack of sympathy, especially towards the dead who deserved respect and compassion. Even in the face of Mr. Hollybrass's silent plea , we can see that Captain Jaggery’s lack of sympathy remains intact, even to the point where he spits on the corpse.
