Joshua bars him from setting foot on any and all Collins property, including the shipyard. When Nathan points out that that's where he works, Joshua replies that that's the navy department's problem.
[Now why it should take that long to do, I don't understand, plus apparently nobody ever heard that suicides were supposed to be buried at a crossroads, face down, in an unmarked grave. But I suppose the rich and powerful Collinses can bury themselves wherever they want.]
Further... well, we can hardly dignify them by calling them 'thoughts', but here goes... Bradford's a basically admirable character, but he's set up to be, so we take that for granted, and thus can't help but to notice all his deviations from this... and I thought he was thoughtless for blurting out that Barnabas was dead. No doubt when he was told Barnabas was dead, he was also told it was a secret. In any case, clearly Millicent hadn't a clue, so be careful why don't you, Sledgehammer Pete....
I'm interested in the whole situation of the relationship between private industry and the military back then. The military had to function through the facilities of private commercial operations? Nice that we get that bit of historical instruction, if true.
Man, that's harsh, about the burial requirements for suicides, DL. Was it a religious thing? Couldn't have been legal.
