P. G. Wodehouse minor characters
The following is an incomplete compendium of the fictional characters featured in the stories of P. G. Wodehouse (other than the ones already described in separate guides about Wodehouse series such as Blandings, Jeeves, etc.), in alphabetical order by surname.
== Arnold Abney ==
The rather mild headmaster of Sanstead House during the events of ''The Little Nugget'', Mr Arnold Abney is a tall and suave man, with a high forehead, thin white hands, a cooing intonation, and a general air of hushed importance.
Abney is an incorrigible namedropper, who rarely completes a sentence without mentioning some noble or important person of his acquaintance. His troublesome ward Ogden Ford refers to him as a 'hot air merchant'. He is also renowned for his propensity for 'popping up to London', generally to meet with some prospective aristocratic parent and invariably leaving his overworked masters in the lurch.
Abney is devoted to maintaining the good name of his school, and makes every effort to keep the boys in his charge from catching colds, both of which become difficult tasks with Ford around. Abney, having led a quiet and regular life, is suitably shocked to find his precious school overrun with gangsters.
