Photo of Benjamin Cutler Randall from his son Gordon Randall via Henry Ching. Henry writes:

As promised, a photo of Benjamin Cutler Randall in his Police Reserve uniform.  Don’t know when the photo was taken, but it must have been in the early 1930s, or perhaps even earlier.  He looks far younger than I remember him. Also, I think the two pips mean he was an Inspector, but in December, 1941 he was a Superintendent. Don’t know what the ribbon is.

The photo shows the old English Methodist Church which was situated at junchtion of Queen's Road East and Kennedy Road.  It was taken in 1937.

The upper part of the pitched roof structure behind was a 3-storey building (edged green) located to the south west of the old Wanchai Government School (to the west of the Church) which was not visible because it was behind a series of trees fronting the QRE.
