George Budd was appointed Midshipman in the U.S. Navy 22 November 1805. In June 1813 he was the senior surviving officer of the U.S.S. Chesapeake after its disastrous encounter with H.M.S. Shannon. In addition to his service on the Chesapeake, in 1814 he was on the Sloop of War Ontario. Detached to command Fort Look-out at Fells Point, Maryland, he helped save Baltimore by repelling a British sea-borne attack of twenty barges with troops on the morning of September 14, 1814. He later served on the U.S. Frigate Java, was promoted Master and Commander 28 March 1820, and commanded the navy post at Erie in 1825. He died in Boston 3 September 1837.

In the context of Budd pushing Doyle into opening his own practice, then (he hoped) dooming it to failure, Doyle writing in The Norwood Builder that Sherlock Holmes had bought Watson’s practice upon his return is heartbreaking.

He told himself a better story.

I hope you did not say anything too hard to Budd, for though I think he has used me badly in this, he was honestly fond of me once. His ‘amour propre’ was hurt.
