This image depicts a historic crowd gathered at the Queen's Pier in Central, Hong Kong, during an assassination attempt on Governor Sir Francis Henry May in 1912.
I think the photo was taken on Pedder Street just past the main entrance of the General Post Office and opposite Hotel Mansions. The double columns at top right show the main entrance to the GPO. The sedan chair procession had departed from Blake Pier.
