The Visit

The progress of Lord Renfrew is continued:

P:At Detroit, the Prince was shown the factory whence thousands of fliv- vers emerge daily. He witnessed the rapid assembling of an automobile which was christened by Henry Ford "The Prince of Wales Special." The Baron then motored to the home of Edsel Ford; was royally entertained at a dinner and dance. Then he left for Toronto.

P: In Toronto, the Baron of Renfrew listened to words of greeting from the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario and the worshipful Mayor. He responded to the proffered welcome, dashed away to New Market, a few miles distant, took part in a hunt. His horse fell at one point and off shot the royal rider. He, however, gave chase to the nag, caught it, remounted, continued the hunt. In the evening, he was dined at the Ontario Government House; later, he danced.

P:The next day saw him in Ottawa, capital of the Dominion of Canada. At Government House, His Excellency General the Right Honorable Julian Hedworth George, Baron Byng of Vimy, Governor General of Canada, en- tertained the British Heir Apparent at dinner. The Baron spent the night at Government House, left the following day for Montreal.
