I'm looking for photos of Walter Meredith Deane, to be used in the Central Police Station project. If you know of any, please could you let me know in the comments below?

He's of interest because he was the longest serving head of the police force. The Police's "Offbeat" has an article that mentions him:

[...] when Walter Meredith Deane succeeded Mr Quin in 1867, a precedent was set of having a Cadet Officer from Britain to head the Hong Kong Police Force.
