" *' Do you know my brother-equerry, Grey ?" asked the Major. " Come over, and 111 intro- duce you. " And we went across the poop. " Grey, " he continued, " this is young Gough of whom I spoke. " Captain Grey turned round and held out his hand. As I shook hands with the stalwart Guards- man I felt I had two good friends in the men beside me, and so I had ; they were always doing kind little things for the youngsters. Captain Grey was a fine - looking man, wearing long Dundreary whiskers and mou...stache, which was STRAINING AND PITCHING 71 the fashion at that time. After a few niinutes' more conversation, the two soldiers descended to look after some breakfast, and I went to the gun-room. The atmosphere on the lower-deck was a little sweeter : several wind- sails had been got up, and the watch on deck had relieved the breathing-space. The gale still kept on, the ship straining and pitching in the short seas, and it was a bad time for most of our passengers, from His Koyal Highness down to the palace retainers.
