The picture shows a special banquet held in honour of an important dignitary called Mr Frederick N Martinez, who had travelled through South America and North America, on business, at the Hotel Cecil in London in 1898. It is a follow on from the last post about hotels named 'Cecil' and is from an old book written at the end of the 19th century. Mr Martinez sits at the top table (wearing white) which is situated at the back end of the photo.
