"Buffy" Struggles
An old companion of Galahad, Buffy was a member of the Pelican Club, whose unfortunate demise is frequently used by Galahad to illustrate the dangers of drinking tea. Mr Struggles, after attending a Temperance lecture and learning what alcohol does to the liver, renounced drink and imbibed only tea, until a few days later he was run over by a Hansom cab and killed (a fate which, Galahad asserts, he could easily have dodged had his system been kept alert with a healthy tipple or two).
