GARIBALDI IN HONGKONG

While Hongkong's situation makes it likely that distinguished personages should call here from time to time, there is a great deal of romance attached to various persons who visited the Colony in the old days. Most of us know of Garibaldi, the famous Italian patriot, but few will know that he was a visitor to these shores. In the Hongkong Telegraph of June 6, 1882, reference is made to the fact that Garibaldi was once well-known in Hongkong, having been in command of a merchant vessel out here in 1852. During his visit to England in 1874, Garibaldi made several allusions in his speeches to his Chinese experiences.
