planned for a gorgeous pageant, boiling
with Joy and enthusiasm, might well
have been mistaken for q funeral.
The fog was SO dense that the Kaiser
and his consort had almost 70 feel FOR
the Prince Of Wales and the Duke OF
Connaught, who were on the landing
stage to welcome them. The crowd
could not see the royal visitors The
royal visitors could not see the crowd.
There wasn't much cheering. because
no one could tell when cheers were
due. Water dripped from everyone.
The Kaiser's moustache almost dripped
with moisture. His Majesty was evil
