Mr. T. H. Steele

Tr is with deep regret that we have to record the death of Inspec-for Thomas Henry Steele, of the Shanghai Municipal Police Force, which occurred at the General Hospital early on Monday morning. Inspector Steele, who was only 36 years of age, and a native of Mousby Parks, Cumberland, first came to Shanghai 13 years ago and at the time of his death was Inspec-for in charge of North Szechuen Road Extension Police Station. He went into hospital a few days ago, suffering from rheumatism and it was not thought that his illness was serious, but death came suddenly shortly after midnight on Sunday. Inspector Gteele was held in great esteem by his comrades in the police and was of a very genial disposition. Though not taking an active part, he was keenly interested in field sports and took great pleasure in organizing them.
