"Ah, but," put in the Captain, "the `good Sarah' did not forget her head this time, at any rate! You'll have to alter your poem, Master Bob!"
Let me introduce him. Mr Frank Gowan, Captain Sir Robert Gowan's son, and my fellow-servant with his Royal Highness. Frank, this happens to be a friend of mine Mr George Selby."
