Mr. and Mrs. G. V. T. Marshall will bid Shanghai farewell in a few days for Hankow, where Mr. Marshall will take up the position of secretary to the British Municipal Council. Though young in years, Mr. Marshall would be counted among Shanghai's old residents, having spent the past twenty years here. Up till recent years he was on the staff of Messrs, Reiss & Ca., which he left to join Messrs. L. Moore Ca.; still later he went into partnership with his brother.and occupied a seat on the Stock Exchange. As @ yachtsman, and later as captain of the Artillery, 8. V. C., in connexion with which his services were specially recognized by the Municipal Council, Mr. Marshall gained many friends who will be genuinely sorry to lose him. We join them in wishing him every success in his new post, and venture to congratulate the Hankow Municipal Council on their selection of one 80 fitted to fulfil a position of such scope.
