DONALD McCOLL

A Brilliant Tramway Manager:

His Work Here and Elsewhere It is with much regret that have to announce the death, which took place in Glasgow on January 25, of Mr. Donald McColl formerly general manager of the Shanghai Electric Construction Ca, Ld.

'The late Mr. MeColl was born in Glasgow and, joined the Glasgow Corporation' Tramways in the days when the cars were horse-drawn, remaining with them until the transi power. This, however, was not carried through.

Before leaving his work in Shanghai, mention must be made of his great consideration for the stof serving under him. The capacity he had for hard: work never affected the mess of his nature, and those who were associated with him have the warmest recollections of his invariable consideration and genial friendlies.
