Register Entry  On board the barque Swallow Captain Franck on the 19th November on his passage from Mauritius to Moulmein returning to Calcutta Captain William Bruce late of the Indian Navy and formerly Resident at Bushire aged 69 years and 8 months. The deceased after his retirement from the Navy was long connected with the commercial house of Bruce Cumming and Co which became Bruce Allan and Co and eventually Bruce Shand and Co. Subsequently to the failure of this house he again in connexion with his old partner re-established himself in the existing firm of Bruce Shand Stewart and Co. In all the above capacities - as an Indian Naval Officer as a Political Agent and as a British Merchant - the deceased captain Bruce carried with him the esteem of all those who held intercourse with him and during a long and varied career he was always the warm friend of his 'fellow man' as many who have known him in his prosperity can testify
