FORE:Richard grumbled of course, but discreetly. His brothers were inclined to envy himAlbert saw more romance and freedom in keeping sheep than in digging roots or cleaning stables, Pete was jealous of an honour the recipient did not appreciate, Robert and Jemmy would have liked a new interest in their humdrum lives.
