On 16 June, Jellicoe confided to Sir Henry Jackson that, "My Vice=Admirals are always a little shaky.  Warrender gets awfully deaf at times [a complaint Jellicoe himself suffered from] and is inclined to be absent-minded, but on the other hand he has had unique experience in command and is excellent as a squadron admiral in peace. I am not always quite happy about him."<ref>(Jackson MSS.)  ''Jellicoe Papers''.  p. 167.</ref>

Jellicoe wrote to Beatty on 23 November, "George Warrender is relieved by Jerram 16th December.  I shall feel his departure most keenly.  He is the soul of his squadron and the most loyal of comrades."<ref>(Beatty MSS.)  ''Jellicoe Papers''. '''II'''.  p. 189.</ref>  Warrender struck his flag on 16 December and assumed the position of Commander-in-Chief, Plymouth on 20 March, 1916.  On 11 November he was granted six weeks leave after an attack of Pleurisy.  On the 30th he was found unfit for further service, and on 3 December he was asked whether he wanted to retire.  On 5 December, 1916 he was superseded in the Plymouth command and went on the Retired List at his own request the following day.

Bartimeus was born Lewis Anselmo da Costa Ricci on 29 April, 1886.  He entered H.M.S. "Britannia" on 15 September, 1901, joined H.M.S. "Emperor of India" in the Home Fleet on 15 January, 1903, was rated Midshipman without examination on 28 February, and was appointed to H.M.S. "Albemarle" in the Mediterranean on 12 November.  He was invalided on 10 August with Mediterranean Fever, and was eventually found unfit for the Military Branch of the Royal Navy owing to defective eyesight.  On 9 December, 1904, he was told he was allowed to apply for an Assistant Clerkship in the Account Branch, even though he wasn't between 16 and 18, the age of entry.  He was formally transferred to the Accountant Branch  on 27 March, 1905, with the passing of an Order in Council allowing the transfer of officers from other branches "determined by such service and limits of age as we see fit."
