Question

Free Advice
I was overwhelmed with gratuitous advice. Well-meaning yet ignorant friends
thrust their opinions into unwilling ears. The majority of them said I couldn't do
without meat in the cold climate. I would catch consumption. Me Z went to
England and caught it on account of his foolhardiness. Others said I might do
without flesh but without wine I could not move. I would be numbed with cold.
One went so far as to advise me to take eight bottles of whisky, for I should want
them after leaving Aden. Another wanted me to smoke, for his friend was obliged
to smoke in England. Even medical men, those who had been to England told the
game tale I replied that I would try my best to avoid all these things, but if they
were found to be absolutely necessary I did not know what to do. I may here
mention that my aversion to meat was not so strong then as it is now I was even
betrayed into taking meat about six or seven times at the period when I allowed my
friends to think for me. But in the steamer, my ideas began to change. I thought I
should not take meat on any account My mother, before consenting to my
departure, had exacted a promise from me not to take meat. So, I was bound not to
take it, if only for the sake of the promise. The fellow passengers in the steamer
began to advise us (the friend who was with me and myself, to try it. –
