None strike fear in the heart of the Zanzabari and Arabs slavers (other than Lord Greystoke) than Lady Prudence Fiona Throckwaddle, of the North Piddle Throckwaddle's. A formidable woman (just ask her deceased husband, Lord Throckwaddle) she has lead numerous anti-slavery raids and most famously, she guided the raid at Iringa, which liberated more than 700 slaves. Though not popular with the German Authorities in the area (the infamous tea party incident with Herr Doktor Professor Oberst (Ret.) Sanders) they grudging allow her much latitude in her operations as she is a signatory of the "Alliance" in the Secret War. Baroness Grete Wölfflin has been assigned by Herr Doktor Professor Oberst (Ret.) Sanders as the Imperial German Liaison to the Anti-Slavery Leauge.

I thought her name was a Yacht of the Raymond Luxury Yacht family. |

Nicely done! But have I lost track of the naming conventions (again)? Ought not the wife of Lord Throckwaddle to be simply Lady Throckwaddle--or, eventually, the Dowager Lady Throckwaddle--while the daughter of an earl or duke would be Lady Prudence Whoever? Not that I would want to mess with her anyway. Or with anyone from the North Piddle area. |

This is a really nice set. I bid on it but got out numbered at the end:( |

In the case of multiple predecessors, wife names would never be used? I suppose her father could ALSO have been a Lord Throckwaddle, only pronounced 'Throckwaddle.'

Few would, my friend, few would. *ahem* Doug |
