EWTH's Shares in the Burma Development
Syndicate, of which he was a Director
EWTH was the third largest shareholder in the
Burma Development Syndicate. Second was his
father-in-law, Thomas Bound (Bound's son, Thomas Alexander also owned shares).
The documents shown below list the shareholders as they record the
dissolution of the original Syndicate and its reformation (no indication
of why this was done).
The document was created at the end of 1912, after EWTH's second wife,
Florence, had departed for New Zealand to spare their sickly son the British
winter, but before she returned and deserted him.
