Doughty, Frederic Proby, Rear-Admiral, 1834-1892.

The papers include logs, 1847 to 1854; journals, 1860 to 1864, and 1878 to 1883; official letterbooks, 1866 to 1872, and 1882 to 1887; a personal letterbook, 1867 to 1876; an order book, 1860 to 1864; and notes and drawings on torpedoes compiled in 1868. Although Doughty's career was comparatively uneventful, he was a man of wide interests and his journals are of more than official interest.
