Scott's Last Expedition, Volume I · Chapter 28To Vice-Admiral Sir Francis Charles Bridgeman, K.c.v.o., K.c.b
This chapter is not translated yet. You are reading the original.
My Dear Sir Francis,
I fear we have shipped up; a close shave; I am writing a few letters which I hope will be delivered some day. I want to thank you for the friendship you gave me of late years, and to tell you how extraordinarily pleasant I found it to serve under you. I want to tell you that I was not too old for this job. It was the younger men that went under first… After all we are setting a good example to our countrymen, if not by getting into a tight place, by facing it like men when we were there. We could have come through had we neglected the sick.
Good-bye, and good-bye to dear Lady Bridgeman.
Yours ever,
R. Scott
