The adverts & reviews for this production (in Freeman's Journal) spell it "Sindbad". The part of

John Spooner said:
In the Freeman's review on 27 December, the sets and the costumes come in for particular praise. In addition
Mr J W Volt, as Mrs Sindbad, was mainly instrumental in making the fun of the piece go fast and furious, and Mr. Crackles, whose particular name will enter into the minds and memories of the youth of the city, made the part of Tinbad quite remarkable.
AlsoThe dances are good, and Miss Jessie Noire's Serpentine dance was a feature of the time.
That last bit has made me feel all peculiar. -

John Spooner Have a sit down and a cuppa, John, and you'll be right as rain! The chorus dancers must have been raging about "the dances are good" - talk about damning with faint praise.

TVL1970 said:
Though the caption on the slide says "Veck," the British aviation journal Flight, using this very photo (in better shape), identifies this aviator as Hugh Peck, with a "P." See: www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1915/1915%20-%200635... Also, read here of the third reunion of most of these and other Canadian ex-Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS) aviators at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Montreal on December 10, 1922 (once more, Hugh Peck is among those listed as attending): www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1922/1922%20-%200059...

shows that the four men other than Frank Burnside were awarded pilot certificates for a hydro-aeroplane.
Frank Burnside was chief test pilot for Thomas Brothers, according to
