He shared a seat with another junior officer and both of them slept most of the way to Montreal. As they left the train in Montreal, they said good-bye and introduced themselves. Each was a Berry. Norman said that he thought that they were cousins. I said to Norman "That must have been Marlborough's son" He said "No, I think it was Thomas's."
