Day 14: Timothy Ambrose Wallace


Timothy is the fourth-oldest of the Wallace kindle (kindle being the term for a litter of kittens: kindle of kittens. A very nifty collective noun that is so much more than an electronic reader. Work it into one of your conversations today.).  While he’s not the oldest, he is the biggest handful. He is named in honor of Theophilus Ignatius Mulligatawny (Tim for short), who is also a fourth-born son, and a handful in his own right. Little Tim thinks the world of his uncle Theophilus and has been known to stow away on just the sorts of airships he will one day captain himself.

Day 9: Neville Potemkin Wallace IV


Mr. Wallace introduces himself with his middle initial rather than using his given second name of Potemkin, which he finds to be a bit over the top for most social occasions. He is a tidy banker and dutiful father to the litter of eight kittens who have recently joined the Wallace household. On Sundays he usually attends early service with the Missus and the kindle so that he has more of the day left for his favorite part of the week (Amelia is savvy and supportive, and when the little ones are behaving, handles them on her own, packing Neville a picnic and sweeping him out the door towards the airfield).  He is a member of Her Majesty’s Aeronautic Research Collegium (H.M.A.R.C. -- No claws allowed.). It is from there that his friend and colleague Theophilus Ignatius Mulligatawny (Tim for short) sets forth on his great adventures.
