In ML Chapter 16, Titty says that “John doesn’t really need Latin. You just try him in mathematics” because he is going into the Navy, like Father, who “was stationed at Hong Kong”. Then Miss Lee says “Better no one should know” (ie the counsellor or Wu). “If he knew you were with Miss Lee, he would come with gunboats and spoil my father’s business”.

John knows the Greek alphabet because it is needed for mathematics (ML again).

Somewhere (?) John’s holiday task is Algebra; Titty’s is French (French verbs in SD), Roger does not have one, and Susan’s is ??
