“Times” Reader in China

October 1927

Mexborough & Swinton Times, October 7, 1927

Here is a snapshot of one of our many local readers who are serving the flag in various parts of the Empire.

This is Able Seaman G. H. Coleman, of 28, Hall Gate, Mexborough, reading the Jubilee number of the ” Mexborough and Swinton Times ” on the deck of H.M.S. Wishart at Wei-hai-wei, on the China station.

He sends us the snapshot and asks us to add it to our collection of photographs of the “Times” being read in different parts of the Empire.

We gladly accept it for that purpose, and wish our correspondent luck and a safe return to the old country.
