Here is another photo of the border of the "lucky" plate given to Leslie and Cicely Warren when Cicely left Hong Kong in 1938.

Here is a second photo of the mystery plate found in the effects of Cicely Warren and perhaps a leaving gift when she left Hong Kong in 1938.

Can anyone identify this round metal object which is 15 inches in radius and 21 inches high together with the wooden stand? Likewise the meaning of the Chinese characters and the symbolism of the flower border at the base. It has been found among the effects of Cicely Warren, late widow of my uncle Leslie Warren. It was a heavy item to take to England with her in 1938 when Leslie evacuated his family. Cicely then took it to Canada when she emigrated there after the war. It must have some sentimental significance.

Mr McReynolds either lived next door to 19 Broadwood Terrace in 1926 or next door to 19 Broadwood Road. He also owned a monkey. He is not on Carl Smith nor on the Jurors Lists. It would be useful to verify his actual address in order to confirm the whereabouts of my grandmother, Hannah Warren in 1926, apparently bitten by McReynolds's monkey in one newspaper report. A second newspaper report gave the victim as her daughter-in-law, Cicely Warren and the location Broadwood Road, not Broadwood Terrace.
