With
great pomp and circumstance, the unveiling of two statues took place on
the 6th February 1907. Above is the King Edward VII statue donated by
Sir Paul Chater. The other statue unveiled on the same day was that of
The Prince of Wales (later King George V) donated by a friend and
colleague of Sir Paul, Mr. Bell-Irving even though he had left the
colony permanently five years earlier.
