His views on punctuality are not ascetic... and as a keeper of engagements he is casual." (blurb). At Henley Royal Regatta he was in the winning crew for the Stewards Challenge Cup in 1901 and 1902, when he also won the Silver Goblets with Claude Taylor. He went on to serve as a Member of Parliament for Southampton from 1906 - 1922.
