Saguenay Cap Badge ...
There was someone looking for a Saguenay Cap badge sometime ago. I replied but got no answer . If they are still looking it may be easier if I gave to Louis if he is willing to take back to the uk . If they are still wanting they will have to arrange with Louis for receivership. JS .

#20. Maybe George Robey was taking his annual holiday in Durban Vernon , and saw a gullible seaman and saw a chance of recuperating some of his expenses , and just happened to have a few spear points in his pocket. JS
Ref. Cap badge it was a post from Dave Rawstron on a post about Saguenay his post . JS
