Summary
Mr. Hiram Horton, a special cinematograph artist of the Kinemacolor Company of Wardour Street, London, came to Hong Kong and has taken a large number of local views after taking a series of pictures of the Japanese royal funeral ceremonies. His business takes him to many parts of the world. When he was in India, he photographed all the principal features of the great event and these have been reproduced by Mr. Charles Urban under the title of 'With our King and Queen in India' [sic]. The Kinemacolor process is more elaborate than any yet invented.
