Married Dahlia the year Bluebottle won the Cambridgeshire.
A bit of a squirt with greyish hair and a face like a walnut,
he made a pile of money out in the East, but in so doing put
his digestion on the blink. In Clustering Round Young Bingo, he won't live in the
country; Anatole is hired as chef to mollify his digestion and
disposition. Nervous about burglars, with a delusion that
everybody known even slightly to the police is lurking in the
garden, waiting for a chance to break into the house. Rich
as creosote and eloquent on the subject of income tax and
supertax, he is a kindly old bimbo but dislikes most of his
houseguests and thinks most of his circle fatheaded asses. His
four-year sponsorship of Aunt Dahlia's publication Milady's
Boudoir, which he calls Milady's Nightshirt, supposedly ends
with its sale to L.G. Trotter in Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit, but in Jeeves Makes an Omelet he is still
footing the bill for it. His collection of old silver has become
one of the finest in England in Jeeves in the Offing.
