I'm glad he seems not to have been a murderer! The 5'6" sounds a more likely height. From tweeds to skinny dipping implies that he was not quite acclimatised....
Fascinating finds, anyway. I'm very grateful.
I did notice reference to 'Uncle Jardine' in his letter. An old photo came up with that unfamiliar name, linked to Liverpool and New Brunswick (timber dealer/ship owner). Will check for Wardleys.
