I have some thoughts of purchasing D'Egville's pupils; they would fill a glorious harem.

  2. I think James lived the life of a Regency 'sportsman'. He not only enjoyed watching pugalists but I suspect he fancied himself as a boxer although he's coming over as a brawler.

    Yes, I think it's one of the baptisms recorded in the Huguenot Society papers. Do you mind if I snip out a piece and post it on here?
