the second after revolution, he was offered, by Pre- sident Yuan, the Civil Governorship of the Kwangtung Province, but declined it. In 1908 Bir Boshan Wei Yuk was created a Companion of the Most Distin- guished Order of St. Michael and St. George. Recently he was honoured by King Gustav V. of Sweden with the Swedish Order of Wass (First Class). The knighthood which he has now receiv od at the hands of H.M. King George will be a source of pleasure, not only to the Chinese community, by whom he is deservedly honoured and respected, but Also by his numerous friends among the other communities, to whom Bir Boshan has endeared himself by his geniality and his ever-ready sympathy, with all those ip those in need of help or advice.
