I was on her next voyage to Calcutta in 65 . Her senior crew was pretty permanent for a few years . Old man was "Pem " Capt Pembridge ;Mate Taff Roberts Chief Eng Pat Morris ; Sparks Harry Jefferson ; quatermasters were Murdo McLeod ; Wiilie Mc Kenzie and a big Londener whose name escapes me ( He had huge hands which could hide a can of tennents when on gangway duty .)
