The caption for this 1895 illustration reads: Little Trevor replied by reeling off the list of all the house-flags in sight at the moorings - from An Unqualified Pilot by Rudyard Kipling that was published in 1895. This tale is founded on something that happened a good many years ago in the Port of Calcutta, before wireless telegraphy was used on ships, and men and boys were less easy to catch when once they were in a ship. Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865 – 1936) was an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist. He wrote tales and poems of British soldiers in India and stories for children.
