I can't recall the name of the unknown player but understand he emigrated to Canada to further his profession ( I think as a Doctor)

I spent ten years at sea as a Purser, ten further years ashore in Liverpool in the shipping industry after which I emigrated to Durban with my wife and two young daughters.

All together I had been connected with the shipping industry for over 60 years.

I now reside in Margate, some 150 kilometres South of Durban in a retirement village.

I can be contacted by email as follows: dfowler@vodamail.co.za

Kind regards. Donald Fowler (Selwyn's)
