Not so His Royal Highness. Seven o'clock found him landing from bis Royal barge at Kowloon with Admiral Haley and Sir Godfrey Thomas. Accompanied by HE the Governor and Mr. Eric Rice, the Prince and his party motored out to old Kowloon City where HRH. spent fully an hour rambling over the hoary old fragments of ancient Chidee architecture. The people of Kowloon had heard that the Royal Visitor had come to see them after all and many of them were lining the roadway near the Star Ferry wharf when the Prince retard to his barge at about half past eight.

The Prince went aboard the "Renown" at twenty minutes to nine and precisely at rine o'clock the Royal cruiser began to ship its moorings Meantime her escort, the "Durban ", had got under way and was moving down the harbour. A few minutes after nine the great mer share of the "Renown" began to slip past the buoy and to the staccatoreracks crack of the Japanese fireworks overhead was a dded the thunder of the Rogal salute and the stentorian cheering of the navy men manning the warships
