Description
A Company man nursing a drink in the back corner of The Watering Hole, who listened to the party’s problem for a while before solving it.
Background
Well enough informed about the Red Sea shipping season to know a hull’s schedule before her masts are in the bay.
Connections
- Told Freddy that the Shah Alam was due the following morning — a Bombay-built country ship of around 350 tons, running the coffee route up to Mocha and Jeddah on one monsoon and home to Bengal on the other, answering to no Company officer, which is precisely why she was available.
- Warned that the party would need to reach her before the Ottoman military commandeered her. This proved exact: soldiers were marching for the gangplank within minutes of her tying up.
