专家说明

Leese was a Royal Navy rating aboard HMS Mutine, when the Terra Nova tied up alongside her in Simonstown, South Africa, at the end of the first leg of her journey south. Leese was chosen as a replacement for one of two men Edward Wilson put ashore sick and thereafter served aboard as Able Seaman.
