Linda Gilpin
Niece of Alaric, Duke of Dunstable and sister of Ricky, Linda is a pretty, slim young girl with blue eyes and chestnut hair, who appears in A Pelican at Blandings, visiting the castle with her uncle shortly after becoming engaged to Johnny Hallyday. She objects to being roughly treated in court, but has strong motherly instincts when those she loves are hurt. Gally, who works hard to smooth the way for the couple, refers to her as a 'popsy'.
