Coghlan is stout man of medium
height, grayish hair. large nose, and
twinkling little eyes. He is always
smiling, good humored, and easy to

still an old sea dog, and his after din

One of the admiral's favorite stories
is about a former bo'sun of his who
always got drunk when allowed to go
ashore. He was carried aboard SO
many times in a helpless condition
that Admiral Coghlan finally decided
to make him stay on board Some
