He started in business in London as a New Zealand merchant at Daswood House, Old Broad St., from which he retired in 1905. He was a director of the New Zealand and River Plate Land Mortgage Co. Limited. In 1891 he married Stella (daughter of the late Mr Moses Joseph, of London and formerly of Sydney, who survives him. He had been in failing health for some time. His bright and genial personality will be sadly missed by his devoted wife and numerous sorrowing relatives and friends.
