Kipling was a cousin of the three-times Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin.
Kipling was very enthusiastic in his response and shortly produced both an obligation and a ceremony formally entitled "The Ritual of the Calling of an Engineer".
Kipling's father, JohnLockwoodKipling, was an artist and scholar who had considerable influence on his son's work, became curator of the Lahore museum, and is described presiding over this "wonder house" in the first chapter of Kim, Rudyard's most famous novel.
Kipling was taken to England by his parents at the age of six and was left for five years at a foster home at Southsea, the horrors of which he described in the story "Baa Baa, Black Sheep" (1888).
