There's Joseph White, master of the mission smack Cholmondeley, a splendid feller he is; an' Bogers of the Cephas, an' Snell of the Ruth, an' Kiddell of the Celerity, an' Moore of the M.A.A., an' Roberts of the Magnet, an' Goodchild and Brown, an' a lot more, all first-rate fellers, whose little fingers are worth the whole o' your big body."

R. M. (Robert Michael) Ballantyne - The Young Trawler

Then, after commending Scott, Bogers, and Moore for being men of the world, he proceeds: But for the children of the "mighty mother's," The would-be wits and can't-be gentlemen, I leave them to the daily "Tea is ready," Snug coterie, and literary lady.
