Légende
The Seamen's Church, Hong-Kong, 1872. 'This church has recently been erected for the use of the British sailors who frequent the port of Hong-Kong. The plans were drawn and carried out in construction by Messrs. Wilson and Salway, surveyors and architects. The church is a plain but elegant structure, and has given great satisfaction. The total cost, about £1600, was defrayed by subscription before the opening. The erection of this church supplies a great religious want. It reflects much credit on those who have zealously seconded the Bishop of Victoria in this important undertaking. He has appointed the Rev. T. Talbot to be the first Chaplain'. From "Illustrated London News", 1872.
