The ship was the Lady Palmer.

Francis Collins clerk 29
Margaret Collins wife 26

Hi

I don't know if this information is of any help but there's a record on Ancestry's
'UK Incoming Passenger List' which could be a possibility for Francis and Margaret's return to England (maybe just a visit?)

Arriving at Liverpool on 30th July 1914 on the 'Gando' (African SS Co)
Port of Embarkation - Las Palmas
Country of Last Permanent Residence - Grand Canary
Francis Collins  50   Clerk
Margaret Collins   48
Lawrence Collins  5

Apologies if you already have this information.

Regards

Neptune
