The unlv chid of Sir David Ynlc, Miss Gladys Yule, whose father recently died leaving an estate estimated to bo worth over £10,000,000, is little known in society. She is fond of tho open-air life and hunting, and has accompanied her mother on adventurous trips to the Klondyko and Alaska ior big game shooting. Right up to his death at the ago of sixty-five Sir David Yule never altered his *sby, unassuming manning and the simplicity of his stylo of living. Ho worked hard throughout his life, often from 5.40 a.m. until midnight, and was always to bo found in his shirt sleeves in his office.

His iirm controlled eighty Indian jute, tea, and shipping companies, which ho built up mostly by bis own personal effort. He lived for tho greater part of his life in Calcutta, always in comparative seclusion, as ho lived, too, when in London. His marriage with his cousin, Miss Annio Ynlc, in 1900, brought him another fortune.
