The two [Mertz and Ninnis] had joined the Expedition together in London, and had been associated longer and in a more intimate manner than any other members of the Expedition. During the winter months we had all been drawn together, but between Mertz and Ninnis there existed a very deep bond. Mertz, in his warm-hearted impulsive way, had practically adopted Ninnis, and his affection was almost maternal. Ninnis, less demonstrative, reciprocated this to the full, (Laseron, 212)

and indeed it was hard to dissociate them in our thoughts. It was always “Mertz and Ninnis” or Ninnis and Mertz”, a composite entity, each the complement of the other. (Laseron, 213)
