We greatly regret to record the death of Mr. W. Turner Stevens, chief accotant of the Kailan Mining Administration, which took place at the Tientsin Isolation Hospital on November 95. The late Mr. Stevens complained of feeling unwell a fortnight ago, and was found to be suffering from small-pox. Mr. Stevens, who was 32 years of age, was of a somewhat retiring disposition, but his unfailing good-humour, his affability, and his sterling character attracted all who came in contact with him. Ho had a large circle of friends in Tientsin, Tongshan, and other centres in North China.
