perhaps compared to other adults he did seem small.
But it seems he was quite the opposite.
There is film available on line of AR getting on a train in Russia, in which he seems to be rather tall, especially compared to the Pathe cameraman he is accompanying. And definitely not bearded.
It does sound as though the reference in question is to somebody else.
