The comedian apparently enjoyed himself, but thePrince of Wales looks as thougt he were a trifle bored. The picture shows Miss Florence Stacye, Rev. Edward Hancox and Mrs. Hancox, three missionaries from the Union of Regular Baptist Churches of Ontario and Quebec, who sailed from Montreal on the "Ascania" to take up missionary work in Liberia.
