14 wasn't really a 'child' in this era - I'd suggest replacing this with 'youth' or 'aged 14' as appears in the article. Once this is fixed the article is good to go - it provides an interesting summary of the life of a fairly obscure admiral. Nick-D (talk) 10:59, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

I've followed your suggestion and modified the hook. And thank you for your review. Anne (talk) 19:34, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

No worries - thank you for writing this fine article. With the hook altered this is now good to go. Nick-D (talk) 10:17, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
