High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! William Horace de Vere Cole (5 May 1881 25 February 1936) was a British eccentric prankster and poet. His most famous trick was the Dreadnought Hoax on 7 February 1910 when he fooled the captain of the Royal Navy warship HMS Dreadnought into taking Cole and a group of his friends, including Virginia Woolf, for an Abyssinian delegation. As an undergraduate at Cambridge University, Cole had posed as the sultan of Zanzibar who was visiting London at the time to make an official visit to his own college accompanied by his friend Adrian Stephen (the brother of Virginia Woolf). With his mane of hair and bristling moustache, Cole was often confused with British prime minister Ramsay Macdonald causing dismay in public when he launched into a fierce attack of Labour Party policy. His own sister Annie married Neville Chamberlain.
