Japanese battleship Ise
On 12 April 1922, while at Yokohama, "Ise" hosted a delegation which included the Prince of Wales (the future King Edward VIII), who was accompanied by his second cousin, the future Lord Mountbatten of Burma. Captain Kanna Norikazu relieved Nagasawa on 1 December. The ship aided survivors of the Great Kantō earthquake in September 1923. From the early 1920s through the late 1930s, "Ise" mostly cruised off the coast of China. Little detailed information is available about her activities during the 1920s, although she helped sink the obsolete destroyer during gunnery training on 10 August 1926. The ship was overhauled in 1928–1929, during which her forward superstructure was enlarged and her aviation facilities improved.
Iris (1811 ship)
On 7 February 1819, "Iris", Jones, master, wrecked on Canda Island, on her way from London to Bombay. (Canda, or Candy, or Candu Island does not exist. Contemporary accounts believed that the island was east of the Chagos Archipelago.) "Lloyd's List" reported on 13 August 1819 that "Iris" had wrecked on "Solomon or Canda Island"; this would suggest that "Solomon Island" was the Salomon Islands, a small atoll in the Chagos Archipelago. "Lloyd's List" further reported that had rescued Jones and some of the crew but that the rest of "Iris"s crew had remained on the island, and it was expected that most of the cargo would be saved. "Prince Blucher" had taken with her 40,000 dollars that "Iris" had been carrying. The "Asiatic Journal..." has an account of the wrecking and a subsequent dispute between Captain Lewis Jones and Captain Lagour, master of a French schooner, respecting compensation for passage for Jones and some of his crew to India. The account makes no mention of "Prince Blucher".
