Perhaps he was the admiral's butler in original concepts, or even had Wallace's role. Another explanation is that the aristocrat attire was used as placeholder on this illustration, as it is the same on that one. Still his face was slightly changed when compared to this artwork, so I'd guess more a plot change than a preliminary character study.
