Timothy McCarthy
Seaman
"[He] is the most irrepressable [sic] optimist I've ever met,"
Worsley
wrote about this Irishman from the merchant service, who
joined him,
Shackleton, and three others on the James Caird journey to South
Georgia. "When I relieve him at the helm, boat iced and seas
[pouring] down yr [sic] neck, he informs me with a happy grin,
`It's a grand day, sir.'" Note: No photo is available of
McCarthy.
