Kingly Example When King Edward VII visited the Isle of Man he was escorted through parts of the island by Hall Caine, the author. When His Majesty was about to depart on the royal yacht, it was proposed that a photograph be taken of the royal party and its island hosts. The family of the author was, of course, includ'd; and when the prints were shown, it was found that Hall Caine’s young son had committed the indiscretion of keeping his hat on in the presence of the King. Manx society was much shocked at this, and Mrs. Caine chided the lad; ,but he stoutly maintained his action, saying, “But, Mamma, I watched the King—and he kept his hat on, so I did too!”
