IN LORD JELLICOE’S LIFE.
WHEN HE FELT SADDEST. LONDON, Oct. 23. Lord Jellicoe, in a speech at the shipwright’s dinner, named the saddest two moments of his life. The first was when, in 1914. he boarded his flagship, the Iron Duke, and was forced to tell her former chief, Admiral Sir George Callaghan, that ho was taking over his command, which Sir George had trained to a pitch of perfection never previously attained in any navy. The second was when he left New Zealand, of which he was GovernorGeneral from 1920 to 1924.
