Thank you very much, this is working perfectly.  I copied a couple over
and the server applied them, and is waiting for the next set.

To prevent this sort of thing in the future I would still take a look at the restore_command, for the following reason:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/warm-standby.html#STREAMING-REPLICATION

"If you use streaming replication without file-based continuous archiving, you have to set wal_keep_segments in the master to a value high enough to ensure that old WAL segments are not recycled too early, while the standby might still need them to catch up. If the standby falls behind too much, it needs to be reinitialized from a new base backup. If you set up a WAL archive that's accessible from the standby, wal_keep_segments is not required as the standby can always use the archive to catch up."

A belt and suspenders approach where streaming is the default and WAL archive recovery is the backup.

As long as you have 00000001000000890000002C and the subsequent WALs in
your archive directory, then you should
be able to simply scp them to you second slave's pg_xlog directory.

Thank you.  I'm still running 9.1, but I'll look into 9.4.  Fortunately
my database is small so doing a new base backup is not the end of the
world.  It's been a long time since I've set this up, so I'm going to
have to go through a refresher course on exactly what I need to do.

Thanks for your help.
