Excerpt from Memoir of Commodore Goodenough, R. N., C. B., C. M. C: With Extracts From His Letters and Journals
Many of Commodore goodenough's friends and others having expressed a desire that some record of his life should be made public, the following Memoir has been compiled. In it, it has been the endeavour of the writer to show both his life and his character as much as possible by his own writings, or by those of others (not his near rela tions), who were intimately associated with him at different periods of his life, and who could judge of him perhaps more justly and more dispassion ately than could those in whose affections be filled.
