Photograph of guests at a formal dinner in Tientsin. The group includes some members of the overseas staff of HSBC's branch in the city. A caption reads 'Tientsin - Anderson "Handing Over" x Johnston', which probably refers to the transfer of the HSBC manager's role as L J C Anderson was in charge in 1921 and B C M Johnston took over in 1922. Some of the individuals have been identified on the photograph's mount. Front row, from left to right: Arthur Morse; W Neil; C R Fisher; Thomas J Twyford; F Powell. Middle row: J R Greaves; F J L Shaw; Rev S Teakle; R Wade; W P Ker; L J C Anderson, HSBC's outgoing Tientsin Manager; E C Peters; H M S Mann; R G Buchan. Back row: C R Morling; W H Stewart; R J Paterson; F C Rose; D A E Bell; H G W Woodhead; P S Jamieson; A Loup; G Cousens; W A Davis; B C M Johnston, HSBC's incoming Tientsin Manager; S Gilmore; W Robertson; Baron de Caters; G S Hankinson; P H B Kent; W M Howell; R Sedgwick; T Butler.
