Publication: The photograph has been digitised for the European Collected Library of Artistic Performance (ECLAP) and is accessible on the portal http://www.eclap.eu/drupal/. [SG 31/10/2012]

Photographer: This negative was previously attributed to 'John Emslie Horniman' (b. 1863 - 1932), but based on the biographies and life dates, it is more likely that the photographer was John Eric Horniman (b. 1889 - 1951), Emslie's son. This has been confirmed by the Passenger lists of the 5th June 1909 from England to Montreal, where the following passengers:
"Dr. A.C. Haddon, 55 years old, Surgeon.
Fanny, wife
Ethel, 25 yrs. old, daughter
Kathleen, 21 yrs. old, daughter.
John E. Horniman, 20 years old, student, single."
