Charles Cautley

Charles Cautley is a gentleman and old friend of Bellamy Aubrey-Beecham. He features in the Weekend at Grandfather's.

He has led something of an adventurous life. Those who know him well believe him to have been involved – in a small way – in the Great Game during the 1830s, but after his marriage and the birth of his daughter, Adelaide ,he settled down to less dangerous pursuits, taking a position in the Survey of India. With the Crown now taking over control of India, he has been made an official of the new British Raj, with responsibilities mainly concerning the reform of the education system. Charles has known Bellamy Aubrey-Beecham since their days at boarding-school together.

He is secretly a  member of  Lactantius' Phoenix.
