	HONORARY
	KNIGHTS AND DAMES


	Last updated 11/10/2018


I wish to acknowledge the large debt I owe to Martin Baertl, who has been able to provide me with a wealth of
information in relation to European honorary knights and dames.

Honorary Knights and Dames are frequently appointed by the Crown to various orders of knighthood. Those orders are
currently the Orders of the Garter, the Thistle, the Bath, St.Michael and St.George, the Royal Victorian Order and the
British Empire. Until the independence of India, honorary Knights were also appointed to the Order of the Star of India and
the Order of the Indian Empire. Details of honorary Knights of the Garter and of the Thistle will be found on the pages
devoted to those Orders.

It is not possible to appoint an honorary Knight Bachelor.

Honorary awards are made to men and women who are not citizens of a Commonwealth realm. Recipients of such awards
are not permitted to use the pre-nominal words of "Sir" or "Dame", but are permitted to use post-nominal letters - for
example, Bob Geldof KBE, but never Sir Bob Geldof (notwithstanding the media's incorrect use of such styling). If a
recipient of an honorary knighthood subsequently becomes a citizen of a Commonwealth realm, then any honorary award
usually becomes substantive, with the result that the recipient may then use the pre-nominal title of "Sir" or "Dame," but
only after receiving the accolade from the sovereign or his or her delegate.

Conversely, citizens of a country which was part of the British Empire or Commonwealth (including the Indian Princely
States) at the time they received their award, were substantive knights or dames. Citizens of British Protectorates (for
example, the Malay States, Brunei, the Maldives and Nepal) and mandated territories (for example Transjordan) generally
received honorary awards only. If a country later leaves the Commonwealth, the award remains substantive, and the
recipient may continue to use his or her title(s) if they choose to do so.

Honorary awards can and have been annulled by the sovereign, generally when the recipient of the award has engaged in
activities detrimental to the Crown. Recent examples include Nicolae Ceaușescu and Robert Mugabe. In addition, recipients
of awards who are citizens of a country that is engaged in war with the Crown generally have their awards annulled. For
example, the London Gazette of 23 August 1940 contained a notice which read "The King has given Commands for the
removal from the Lists of Honorary Members of the British Orders of Chivalry, and from the rolls of foreign holders of British
decorations and medals, of all names appearing therein of persons who are of German or Italian nationality." (Issue 34929,
page 5152).

Compiling a listing of honorary Knights and Dames has proved to be a major challenge, and I am certain that, while the
listing below is reasonably complete up to the year 2000, there will be a number of honorary knights and dames missing,
especially those appointed to the Royal Victorian Order since the year 2000. In addition, the listing reveals many honorary
knights and dames who, although they received such an award, the date of such award I have been unable to discover.

Sources:-

Honorary awards up until the end of 1904 are included in ""The Knights of England" compiled by William Arthur Shaw,
published in 1906. For the period between 1904 and 1 July 1911, honorary awards continued to be included in the "London
Gazette," but after that date honorary appointments were generally no longer gazetted. Notwithstanding, it was often the
case that some, but by no means all, subsequent appointments were noticed in newspapers such as "The Times."

The great majority of honorary awards made since 1911 have been made to the Royal Victorian Order. Such awards are
most frequently made as a result of State Visits, either by the King or Queen when visiting foreign countries, or when the
heads of foreign countries are visiting the United Kingdom. Fortunately, listings of these awards are available in Volume II
of "Royal Service," by James Risk, Henry Pownall, David Stanley and John Tamplin, published by Third Millennium Publishing
in 2001. This superb three-volume work is a record of all awards made for personal service to the Royal Family. The listings
are only up to the year 2000, and as a result I have been unable, to this point, to obtain details of any subsequent
appointments, although I have hopes of being able to do so.

For all other honorary awards, I have relied upon contemporary notices in newspapers and various biographies included in
Wikipedia and on the Internet in general.

In summary, the listing contains every honorary award which I have able to discover, given current resources, but it does
not pretend to be complete. As with all my listings, I will be very grateful, and give full attribution to, any reader who can
help me improve the information contained herein.

Boutros Pasha Ghali [Hon KCMG 1899 and Hon GCVO 1905]


Boutros Pasha Ghali was Prime Minister of Egypt when he was assassinated in 1910. His grandson, Boutros Boutros-Ghali,
[1922-2016] was Secretary-General of the United Nations between 1992 and 1996. This report of the assassination is
taken from "The Irish Times" of 7 March 1910:-

'Ibrahim el Wardani, who assassinated Boutros Pasha Ghali, is the son of a provincial functionary, now dead. He has a
brother who is a doctor at Alexandria. Ibrahim was educated at the Assint School, at the Mansurah College, and at the
Ras-el-tin School at Alexandria. He went to Lausanne in 1906, and attended University lectures there for two years. He
then went to England, and attended the Westminster School of Pharmacy, where he took no diploma, receiving merely a
certificate of attendance. He went to Geneva in September, and attended the congress of Egyptian students. He came
back to Egypt last autumn and opened a chemist's shop in Abdin street, near the Palace. As he had no diploma, he
engaged a qualified chemist - an Austrian - as manager. Ibrahim is about 25 years old. He is slight and pale. He is said to
be intelligent, and an enthusiastic "patriot." He was a friend of the late Mustapha Pasha Kamel [a prominent nationalist
activist, 1874-1908], with whom he had travelled in Europe, and is also a friend of Mohamed Bey Ferid [1868-1919], the
present Nationalist leader.

'His shop was the meeting place of many young Egyptians, but none of them seem to be implicated in the crime. During
the inquiry Ibrahim admitted having several times intended to kill Boutros Pasha. On the day previous to the crime he was
in the garden of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with his revolver. On Sunday, at 1.20 p.m., Boutros Pasha came out of the
door of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and descended the steps into the garden, where his brougham was in waiting. As
he was getting into the carriage the assassin threw himself on him, and fired six shots, five of which took effect. The
coachman, Rushdy Pasha, Minister of Justice [1863-1928] and Fathy Pasha Zagloul [1859-1927] then seized the murderer
and bound him with a rope. The Premier was carried into the Ministry, and shortly afterwards taken in an ambulance to Dr.
Milton's hospital, close by. Boutros Pasha was operated on at 6 o'clock, and appeared to stand the chloroform well. He did
not like the idea of an operation, and said he wished the assassin had killed him at once. At ten o'clock on Sunday things
appeared to be going well, but early in the morning there were bad signs, and at 8 a.m. on Monday Boutros Pasha Ghali
died peacefully.

He is universally regretted by all those who knew him, either personally or as a politician. He was a man of high culture and
wonderful intelligence. At his funeral the streets, through which the cortege passed for three miles, were crowded with
spectators, people even standing on the roofs.

'The Khedive visited the late Pasha's family, and informed Negaik Bey, his eldest son, that he would appoint him Under-
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and create him a Pasha.

'The inquiry into the murder is still proceeding. The prisoner is calm, and at times insolent. Being asked by Rushdy Pasha,
Minister of Justice, why he singled out Boutros Pasha as his victim, he replied "Because he made Ministers of men like you."
Up to the present no accomplice has been discovered. About twenty-five people have been arrested, most of whom have
been released.'

Wardani was subsequently executed by hanging on 28 June 1910.



Chang Yen Hoon [Hon GCMG 1897]


Chang was, at various times, the representative of China in the United States, and also in the United Kingdom, where he
was granted an honorary GCMG as part of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations in 1897. His unfortunate end was
reported in the 'New York Times' of 17 October 1900:-

'Washington, Oct. 16 - Confirmation has been received here of the execution of Chang-Yen-Hoon, ex-Chinese Minister to
the United States.

'Chang was a loyal adherent of the Emperor, and a warm supporter of the latter's reform movements. When the Empress
Dowager supplanted the Emperor two years ago he was ordered to be beheaded, but through the intervention of the
American and British Ministers his punishment was commuted to banishment in the distant Province of Kashgaria. It now
appears that the Empress Dowager, taking advantage of the late reign of terror at Peking [i.e. the Boxer Rebellion] and
knowing Chang's influence with the Emperor, ordered his execution by decapitation. A report that he had been executed
reached here some months ago, and this has been authenticated from several sources.

'Chang, who was in Washington in 1887, was considered by those familiar with Chinese affairs as one of the ablest, if not
the ablest man in China. He had been decorated by Queen Victoria and the Emperors of Russia and Germany. He was pre-
eminently the most liberal and enlightened of Chinese statesmen, and had his life been spared till the occupation of Peking
by the allies he doubtless would have been recalled and have taken an active part in the pending negotiations and future
government of China. He was executed July 20.'



William Crawford Gorgas [Hon KCMG 1920]


The following biography of William Gorgas appeared in the November 1966 issue of the Australian monthly magazine
"Parade":-

"Among passengers who watched an American ship discharge a cargo of coffins at Colon, Panama, in June 1905, was a
nondescript little man who was destined for a mighty place in medicine, Dr. William Crawford Gorgas. He knew the reason
for the coffins. They were for members of the Panama work force who were dying like flies from yellow fever. Ashore Dr.
Gorgas introduced himself as the new chief sanitary officer of the canal project. He was confident he could conquer yellow
fever, he said. This statement amused the officials. The only way to eradicate the disease was to eradicate the
mosquitoes, and the mosquitoes were more numerous than the grains of sand on the beaches. They told Gorgas he might
as well throw into the bay the money the U.S. Government had given him to carry out his work.

"When he arrived in Panama the death rate on the partly completed canal project was horrifying. When he left, the rate
was lower than in the U.S. Statistics showed that his work in eliminating mosquitoes saved 70,000 lives. William Gorgas did
more than save his country millions of dollars on the construction of the Panama Canal. He removed yellow fever from
Cuba, brought salvation to hundreds of Negroes working in the South African diamond and gold mines and revolutionised
military medical services. He was not so much a doctor as a medical scientist and technologist. Having learned the cause
of a disease, he specialised in devising a remedy.

"William Crawford Gorgas was born in 1854. His father was Captain Josiah Gorgas, arsenal commander at Mt. Vernon,
Alabama. His mother was a daughter of the State governor [John Gayle, Governor of Alabama 1831-1835]. The family
connection with yellow fever dated to before the child's birth. When it broke out in the Mississippi district, his mother fled
to Mt. Vernon. There she met her future husband. During his boyhood and through a course at the University of Sewanee
in Tennessee, William Gorgas intended following his father in the army. But on graduation he found, that because his father
had served as a senior officer in the Confederate Army during the Civil War, he could not enter West Point military
academy. Yet there was still a way of getting into the army. He could qualify as a doctor and enlist as one. In 1879 he
received his medical degree and enlisted in the medical corps. His first appointment was as medical officer at Fort Brown,
Texas. Here he first came into close contact with yellow fever, for the district was riddled with it.

"Many bizarre stories circulated about the origin of yellow fever. One school of medical opinion held it was carried by a
'yellowjack' breeze from the Rio Grande. Another was certain it had its origin as a germ in bananas and oranges, but the
destruction of these crops did nothing to halt it. Further the only medicine prescribed was large quantities of whisky and
mustard seed.

"Soon after Gorgas arrived at Fort Brown orders came from army headquarters that troops must keep clear of the infected
area. All did - except William Gorgas. Defying the orders, he visited the surrounding hospitals and did all he could with his
limited knowledge of the disease. He became almost obsessed with the disposal of the dead and often dug the graves
himself, covering the corpses with quicklime. While working in the civilian hospital he met Mary Doughty, the sister-in-law
of a high army officer and herself a victim of yellow fever. When she regained her health her doctor went down with the
disease. During his convalescence the courtship that led to their marriage began.

"In 1898, when the Spanish-American War broke out, Gorgas was attached to the American expeditionary force sent to
Cuba. He reached the country amid one of its worst epidemics. In Cuba he met Dr. Carlos Finlay [1833-1915], a Cuban
physician and biologist of Scottish-French parentage, who for years had been trying to convince the authorities that
yellow fever was carried by the aedes aegypti mosquito. Finlay expounded his theory to Gorgas but the American was not
particularly impressed; the thought that a mosquito could carry a germ capable of killing a human seemed preposterous.

"In 1900 [future] President Theodore Roosevelt set up a yellow fever commission in Cuba to test Finlay's theory. One of
the first things the commission did was call for volunteers who would agree to be bitten by aedes aegypti mosquitoes.
When a number of these men died Finlay's theory was proved tragically correct. Knowing the cause of the dread disease,
Gorgas set to work to destroy every mosquito in the country. The task seemed impossible. The air swarmed with them.

"Beginning his campaign in the capital of Havana, Dr. Gorgas organised fumigation squads to smoke the mosquitoes from
every house in the places where yellow fever had been reported. While the squads went from house to house, hundreds of
carpenters were busy covering water receptacles which might provide breeding grounds. Gangs filled in puddles, drained
swamps, covered marshes with oil, built new aqueducts. And all the time the female mosquitoes were finding it more
difficult to find places to lay their eggs. Gorgas's work bore amazing fruit. In 1896 there were 1282 deaths [from yellow
fever] in Havana. In 1901 there were 18. Finally the disease disappeared altogether.

"By now the U.S. Government had bought the derelict Panama Canal workings and was going ahead with them. But, like
two French companies (one under the Suez Canal builder, de Lesseps) which had been harassed by fever, the Americans
struck the same trouble. It soon became obvious there would probably never be a canal unless yellow fever was
eradicated. When the U.S. Government decided to come to grips with the menace Gorgas was an automatic choice as the
man to take charge of such an awesome project. At Colon, with his aides, he went to work fumigating and spreading oil.
Not a single discoverable breeding ground for the mosquitoes was left untreated. When a vast area had been worked and
the menace continued, he ordered his squads to re-treat the same spots. Even then the death rate remained high.

"All this time the doctor was using up vast sums of money given by the government. In the end expenses became so high
that the chairman of the canal commission complained that before the task was finished every dead mosquito would have
cost the government ten dollars. Gorgas replied: "If one of those 10-dollar mosquitoes had bitten you, what a loss that
would have been." By now the commission was openly antagonistic to the medical dreamer whose work seemed to be
producing no results. He was refused materials, his work squads were reduced and he could not even get wire mesh until
the man who controlled it was stricken with yellow fever himself. When he wanted urgent materials to be sent direct from
the U.S. he was told to make the request in writing; the cost of cables was too high.

"At last, when the commission suggested Gorgas should be recalled, Roosevelt became interested in the controversy.
When he realised what was going on he ordered that Dr. Gorgas must be given every support. With his squads back to
strength, the doctor returned to full-pressure work. As a result, after treating of the mosquito areas a third time, the
death rate plummeted, and continued to do so. When the canal was opened in 1914 the death rate in the zone was six
per thousand compared with 14.1 per thousand in the United States.

"In 1916 a further call was made on Gorgas's services when a group of South African gold and diamond mine owners
begged him to find out why 30 per cent of their Negro workers were dying of pneumonia. Having inspected the barracks
in which the Negroes lived, Gorgas reported that unless something was done about such unhygienic living quarters the
deaths would continue. The mine owners took his advice and almost overnight mortality dropped from 300 per thousand
a year to three.

"When America entered World War I in 1917, Gorgas, still a reserve officer, was called on to establish a network of
hospitals with facilities for mass inoculation and diagnosis. He established new standards of medical treatment during
wartime. After the war he became director of the yellow fever section of the Rockefeller Foundation and directed
campaigns in Peru, Guayaquil, Ecuador and Guatemala. Later, while bound for Brussels to receive the Harbin Medal for
services to mankind, he had a paralytic stroke and was put in a London hospital.

"It was obvious he had not much longer to live and Britain, too, wanted to honour him. Thus one morning in June 1920 a
small group stood by his bed. He could see and hear what was going on but beyond that he could not participate in the
ceremony. One of the group spoke briefly, then stepped back. His place was taken by a small, slight, bearded man who
held the insignia of the Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George in his hand. This man spoke softly, praising
the work of Dr. Gorgas. Then he pinned the medal to his jacket. It was King George V. Dr. Gorgas died on July 3, 1920. He
was buried in the Arlington National Cemetery."



Prince George William Christian Albert Edward Alexander Frederick Waldemar Ernest Adolphus, Prince of
Hanover [Hon GCVO 1910]


Prince George was the eldest son of Ernest Augustus, 3rd Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale, who was deprived of his
UK peerages in 1919 for having borne arms against Great Britain during WW1. Prince George was killed in a motor accident
in 1912, as described by "The Times" of 22 May 1912:-

"Prince George William, eldest son of the Duke of Cumberland, was killed in a motor-car accident last night when on his
way to Copenhagen to attend the funeral of his uncle, the late King of Denmark. Prince George William, who was an
enthusiastic motorist, had left Prague early in the morning driving his own car and accompanied only by a servant and a
mechanic. He intended to spend the night at Schwerin, and late in the afternoon had reached the neighbourhood of
Friesack, on the Berlin-Hamburg road. There the motor-car ran off the road, tore down a tree, and was wrecked. The
Prince fractured his skull, apparently by striking his head on the steering wheel. His servant was thrown against a tree and
broke his neck. The mechanic was seriously injured, and when found by a passer-by was unable to give any account of
the accident. It is believed that the car skidded, there being many loose stones and a layer of coarse gravel on the road.
Prince George William, who was a nephew of Queen Alexandra and the Empress Marie of Russia, as well as of the late King
of Denmark, was 31 years of age. His health was never very good, and, although he was a captain in the Austrian Army,
he did not serve with his regiment."



Ghazi bin Faisal, King of Iraq 1933-1939 [Hon GCB]


Ghazi, King of Iraq 1933-1939, died in a motor accident, as reported in 'The South China Herald" of 12 April 1939:-

'King Ghazi I of Iraq, who ascended the throne on September 8, 1933, was killed in a motor-car accident at about midnight
last night. He was the second monarch to occupy the throne since Iraq, formerly a part of the Ottoman Empire, was
recognised as an independent kingdom by a treaty with Great Britain on October 10, 1922.

'The three-year-old son of the late King Ghazi I has been proclaimed King Faisal II. Emir Abdul Ilah, uncle of the new ruler,
has been appointed Regent.

'The King was driving his own car to the palace when it hit an electric pylon while travelling at high speed. He lost
consciousness immediately and died 40 minutes after midnight of a fractured skull. A bulletin announcing his death was
signed by five doctors. The funeral will be fixed in the morning.

The official communiqué announcing his death gives the cause as a severe fracture of the skull causing extreme laceration
of the brain. Only a few days ago, the King celebrated his 27th birthday.

'King Ghazi, who succeeded to the throne on the sudden death of his father, the late King Feisal, in September, 1933, was
only 21 years of age when he shouldered the responsibility of governing Iraq. The young King's great asset was his
personal popularity. He had on several occasions acted as Regent for his father, and by his unfailing tact and courtesy
had endeared himself to politicians and people alike.

'He was born in Mecca on March 21, 1912 [most other sources say May 2], and at the age of thirteen was sent to England
to be educated. He spent three years at Harrow, where he was very popular, and he distinguished himself at lawn tennis
besides being a keen cricketer. He was extremely fond of driving a car, and one of his ambitions was to fly an aeroplane.

'In 1928 he returned to his own country, and his father sent him to the Iraq Army School, where he went through the
ordinary course of instruction like all the other cadets. On the completion of his military training, he was made A.D.C. to
the King which gave him an excellent opportunity to study his father's methods.

'In September, 1933, King Feisal, who had been in bad health for some time, was suddenly taken seriously ill in Switzerland,
and died. Arrangements were made for the Crown Prince to be enthroned as King soon afterwards. Very soon after his
coronation it was announced that he was betrothed to his cousin, Princess Aliyah [1911-1950], the daughter of ex-King
Ali of the Hedjaz. This announcement, coming so soon after the death of King Feisal, was thought in some quarters to have
been actuated by political motives. The young couple had known each other as children but had not met for many years.

'He soon showed that he was prepared to take charge of State affairs, for when Rashid Ali, the Premier, presented the
resignation of his cabinet, King Ghazi accepted it and entrusted the task of forming a new cabinet to Jamil Beg Midfai, the
President of the Chamber of Deputies. This choice occasioned great surprise, for it was thought that Yassin Pasha, known
as "The Strong Man of Iraq," the leader of the Nationalists, was certain to be chosen as Premier. The King's choice proved
wise, for the new Premier was very popular in both Houses of Parliament, and was respected as being a courageous and
straightforward statesman.'

King Ghazi's subsequent memorial service was used by agitators to provoke a riot in Mosul, where the British Consulate
was burned and the Consul murdered. "The Times" of 5 April 1939 reported:-

'Baghdad, April 4 - Mr. [George Evelyn Arthur Cheyne] Monck-Mason [aged 52], the British Consul at Mosul, was murdered
at noon today by a mob which rushed the Consulate and burnt it. Martial law was declared at Mosul, and order was
restored by 4 p.m. Mr. Monck-Mason had been transferred to Mosul last autumn from Tetuan [in Morocco]. His wife and
children are not in Iraq.

'According to news received in London, the murder of Mr. Monck-Mason followed a public memorial service to the late King
Ghazi, whose death had caused much excitement at Mosul. Immediately after the service several agitators harangued the
crowd, accusing the British of having assassinated King Ghazi, with the result that in a short time a mob of from 300 to
400 persons rushed off to the Consulate, murdered the Consul, and burnt the building. Martial law was then declared, and
four persons accused of having excited the mob were arrested and are to be tried by a special court.'



Prince Itō Hirobumi [Hon GCB 1902]


Prince Ito was the first Prime Minister of Japan between 1885 and 1888, and subsequently on three further occasions.
Following the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1905, which made Korea a protectorate of imperial Japan, Ito was Resident General
until he was forced to resign in June 1909. Four months later, Prince Ito was assassinated by a Korean nationalist, as
reported in the New York Times of 27 October 1909:-

'Harbin - It was while he was advancing to meet M. [Vladimir] Kokovsoff [1853-1943], the Russian Finance Minister [and
later, 1911-1914, Prime Minister of Russia] who had come from St. Petersburg to discuss with him questions affecting the
future of Manchuria, that Prince Hirobumi Ito, President of the Privy Council of Japan, was shot down in the railway station
here at 9 o'clock this morning by a Korean. Twenty minutes later he died from three wounds. Three bullets that went
astray wounded Prince Ito's secretary, Consul General Kawakan, the Japanese representative at Harbin, and General
Manager Tanaka of the South Manchurian Railway. The crime was perpetrated in revenge for acts of Prince Ito, who, as
Resident General, first brought Korea under the domination of Japan.

'It was due to a request of Consul General Kawakan that an opportunity was given for the assassination. The Russian
authorities had wished to take precautions for the safety of the distinguished party and an adequate guard of police was
provided, but Mr. Kawakan requested that all Japanese citizens who might apply be admitted to the station. The Japanese
gathered in large numbers and among them were three Koreans, who were responsible for the assassination.

'Prince Ito had a noisy welcome when he stepped down from the car he had occupied in the railroad train. Smiling and
bowing in acknowledgement of the greeting, he turned to make his way toward Minister Kokovsoff, who was awaiting him
on the station platform a few paces distant. Suddenly half a dozen revolver shots, fired in quick succession, were heard,
followed by the cries of those who were near the Prince. Prince Ito staggered and fell fainting. It was subsequently found
that he had received three bullets, two of which entered the abdomen.

'The shots threw the crowd into a panic and it was some time before it could be determined who had been wounded in
addition to the Prince, and who had escaped. When the excitement attending the fainting of the Prince had somewhat
subsided it was found that the three other members of the party on the platform had been injured. It is believed that none
of these will die.

'The perpetrator of the outrage was not hard to locate, as he stood defiantly in the crowd, revolver in hand. Beside him
were two companions. As the police pounced upon the three the one who did the shooting exclaimed dramatically: "I came
to Harbin for the sole purpose of assassinating Prince Ito to avenge my country."

'None of the three attempted to escape and calmly confessed that they had conspired against the life of Prince Ito. They
boasted that the object of the plot was to take his life in revenge for his tyranny while he was Resident General of Korea.
The assassin, while asserting that he was inspired by a patriotic motive and believed that Japanese wrongs to Koreans
justified his act, admitted under examination that he had a personal grudge against the Japanese statesman, who had
caused the execution of several of his friends.

'The police stated that they had been unable to distinguish the Koreans among the many Japanese who had been admitted
to the railway station to welcome the Prince.

Very soon after death the body of Prince Ito was made ready for removal home, and was placed upon a railroad train. The
coffin was covered with flowers, and in other ways the sorrow of official and public life was manifested.

'The meeting between Prince Ito and M. Kokovsoff was arranged after delicate negotiations. The conference was suggest-
ed by Prince Ito in his capacity as President of the Privy Council of Japan. The subjects to be discussed were not definite-
ly known to the public, but they were supposed to concern affairs of administration in Manchuria. M. Kokovsoff had before
declined an invitation to visit Japan for such a conference, and Harbin was agreed upon as a meeting place.

'In accepting the invitation, the Russian Minister said that political questions must be barred, as he was competent only
to discuss financial and technical subjects, such as those concerning the status of the Manchurian Railroad. The confer-
ence had been announced widely in advance, and it was generally known when the envoys would reach Harbin.'

The assassin was An (or Anh) Jung-geun, a 30-year-old Korean independence activist. After his arrest by the Russians he
was handed over to the Japanese authorities and was ultimately hanged on 25 March 1910. On the centenary of his death,
25 March 2010, a nation-wide tribute to him was held in South Korea, including a ceremony led by the South Korean Prime
Minister.



H.R.H. Princess Prekshya Rajya Laxmi Devi Shah, Princess of Nepal [Hon GCVO 1986]


Prekshya was a younger sister of Aishwarya Rajya Laxmi Devi Shah [1949-2001, Queen Consort of Nepal 1972-2001]
and Komal, Queen Consort of Nepal 2001-2008. She was formerly married to Prince Dhirendra. Aishwarya and Dhirendra
were both killed in the Nepalese Royal Massacre of 1 June 2001, when Crown Prince Dipendra murdered ten members of
the royal family during a dinner party. Prekshya died in a helicopter crash not long after the massacre, as reported in
t5he "Times of India" on 13 November 2001:-

Kathmandu: A member of Nepal's royal family and three others were killed on Monday when the helicopter [in which] they
were travelling, with six persons on board, crashed into the Rara Lake in Mugu district, about 500 km west of Kathmandu,
officials here said.

'The French-made helicopter belonging to a private airline crashed as it was attempting to land near the lake, killing 49-
year-old Princess Prekshya Rajya Lakshmi Devi Shah, wife of Dhirendra, the late prince who was killed in the palace
massacre on June 1 [2001], two other passengers and pilot Ravindra Kadaria on the spot, the officials at the Tribhuvan
International Airport said.

[The] remaining two passengers survived with severe injuries and they were brought to Kathmandu for medical treatment,
the officials said. Others killed were identified as Danbahadur Shahi and Ishwor Basnet, they said. Princess Prekshya was
the younger sister of Queen Komal Rajya Lakshmi Devi Shah [Queen Consort of Nepal 2001-2008].

'The helicopter, which belonged to Fishtail Airways, had taken off from Nepalgunj airport in mid-western Nepal at 8.15 a.m.
(local time) for Mugu, a major tourist spot.'



Prince Joachim Franz Humbert of Prussia [Hon GCVO 1904]


Prince Joachim was the youngest son of Emperor William II of Germany. He committed suicide in July 1920 after falling into
a deep depression, possibly caused by his inability to accept his new status as a commoner following his father's abdication
of the throne in November 1918. The following report on his death appeared in "The Times" on 20 July 1920:-

"Berlin - July 19. It is reported today that Prince Joachim of Prussia was found by his servant about 8 o'clock on Saturday
morning, unconscious in his residence, Villa Liegnitz, in the park of Sans Souci. His clothes were blood-stained from a
wound to the left breast.

"The Prince had shot himself with a revolver during the night, and had severely wounded himself. He had returned home on
Friday night at 12.30, and retired immediately to his room. When he was found by the servant he was lying dressed on the
floor and breathing with difficulty. Prince Eitel Friedrich [his older brother] was immediately summoned from his residence,
Villa Ingerheim, and went to Villa Liegnitz. At his instruction Prince Joachim was transported to St. Joseph's Hospital, near
Villa Liegnitz, where it was found that his right lung was pierced and that the bullet had grazed his heart.

"During the day Prince Joachim recovered consciousness, and was able to converse several times with his brother. His
condition had, however, so much changed for the worse by evening that he lost consciousness again, and died at one
o'clock in the morning. Prince Eitel Friedrich had informed the ex-Kaiser and his brothers in the course of Saturday of Prince
Joachim's serious condition, and on Sunday the news of his death was officially made known.

"Prince Joachim left nothing in the way of a written statement behind, and during the hours in the course of which he was
able to converse with his brother he did not say a word about the motive of his suicide. It is said, however, that he
suffered from a complete nervous breakdown.

"Prince Joachim was wounded during the war, was repeatedly obliged to discontinue military service, and when the
revolution occurred he collapsed mentally. He had acquired certain ideas, with which he was obsessed, and was not
amenable to reason. These obsessions disturbed the home life of the Prince. His wife, who was a Princess of Anhalt
[Princess Marie Auguste 1898-1983], married him in 1916 and left him about one year ago. Their child, who is now three
and a half years old, remained with the father. Prince Eitel Friedrich has now taken him to his own home.

"Prince Joachim's condition had become steadily worse in the last few weeks. The management of his household had been
entrusted to a former commander of the Soldiers' Orphans' Asylum, and it had been hoped that the influence of this old
gentleman would react favourably on the Prince's nerves, but when the controversy between the State and the Crown
again became difficult his condition obviously deteriorated. He had a fixed idea that it was desired to turn him out of his
house, although it had been placed at his disposal, and there was no idea of ever discontinuing his right of usufruct [the
right to use or enjoy or profit from a thing possessed]. A contributory cause of his depression of the last few days was the
fact that the question of his divorce had again become acute, as it had been decided that a definite dissolution of his
marriage with the Princess - whose whereabouts are unknown - should take place. The Prince had, however, said nothing
to anyone that could lead to the conclusion that he was about to commit suicide.

"The funeral will take place tomorrow in the Friedenskirche at Potsdam, and will be strictly a family ceremony."



H.I.H. Serge Alexandrovich, Grand Duke of Russia [Hon GCB 1887]


The Grand Duke was literally blown to bits by assassins in 1905. The following report appeared in "The Times" on 18
February 1905:-

"St. Petersburg, Feb. 17, 4.10 P.M. - At Moscow today, as the Grand Duke Serge was driving in the direction of the Kremlin
Palace from the Historical Museum, he was assassinated.

"Close to the Law Courts a cab occupied by two persons was waiting. When the carriage of his Imperial Highness passed
the cab followed, and a bomb was thrown under the Grand Duke's carriage. A violent explosion followed, the carriage was
blown to pieces, and the Grand Duke was killed. The murderers were arrested, one of them grievously wounded. Several
students have been arrested.

5.30 P.M. - Further details have been received regarding the assassination of the Grand Duke Serge in Moscow.

"His Imperial Highness was driving from the Nicholas Palace through the Senate Square at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Behind
his carriage came two cabs. At the Law Courts a sledge in which two men were seated, one of them dressed like a
workman, shot out ahead of the Grand Duke's carriage. It then slowed up and allowed the latter to pass. At this moment
a bomb was thrown beneath the carriage. The explosion was so great that all the windows in the Law Courts were
smashed, and the report was heard outside the city.

"The carriage was blown to pieces, nothing but the four wheels remaining. The horses were unhurt, and bolted.

"The Grand Duke Serge was killed instantaneously, his head and limbs being torn from the body. The driver was so seriously
burned and otherwise injured that he died on the way to the hospital.

"The murderers were at once arrested. Their names are not yet known. One of the coolly remarked, "I don't care. I have
done my job."

"The sound of the explosion immediately attracted a large crowd, and only a few moments after the outrage people were
to be seen picking up fragments of wood and torn clothing. The gates of the Kremlin were promptly closed, but on the
Red Square outside a demonstration was made by a crowd against a number of students who had begun to scatter
revolutionary proclamations. Some of the students were very roughly handled, so much so, indeed, that a magistrate from
the adjacent Law Courts gave orders for a number of the assailants to be arrested.

"When the Grand Duchess Elizabeth was apprised of the event she rushed out without hat or cloak and hastened to the
scene of the assassination.

"The remains of the Grand Duke were taken to the Nicholas Palace.

"10.30 P.M. - At the moment of the explosion the Grand Duchess Serge was at the Kremlin, engaged in superintending work
for the wounded in the war. She was about to proceed to the house of the Governor-General, where she intended to join
her husband, and her carriage was waiting outside the Kremlin.

"After the explosion a policeman observed a man running from the scene of the murder, and, in spite of the fact that the
man carried a revolver, succeeded in overtaking and arresting him. The man did not attempt to deny that he was the
assassin, and explained that the revolver was intended to hinder his arrest. He expressed his satisfaction that the Grand
Duchess was not in the carriage with her husband. He declined to reveal his identity, but admitted that he was a member
of the Socialist Revolutionary party.

"It appears that the Grand Duchess quite recently received two anonymous letters stating that the life of the Grand Duke
was doomed, and imploring her not to drive in the same carriage with her husband, as everybody liked her and wished her
no harm."

***********************************

"The Grand Duke Serge, fourth son of the Emperor Alexander II and younger brother of the Grand Dukes Vladimir and Alexis,
was born in 1857 (May 11) and received the ordinary Grand Ducal education......He was brought up like his numerous
brothers and cousins, but he was distinguished from many of them in one respect - he had no taste for riotous frivolities.
From an early age his seriousness took a religious tinge, and he formed a project of making a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
Before he could carry out this idea he had to serve in the Russo-Turkish war, during which, in a brush with the Turks on
October 24, 1877, he came under fire and received the St. George's Cross of the 4th grade. It was not until 1881 that he
could travel abroad, and aimed at instruction quite as much as amusement. Together with his brother Paul and his cousin
Konstantin Konstantinovich - the latter much more cultivated and refined than Grand Dukes usually are - he first visited
Western Europe and then went on to Palestine. Here he was greatly interested, not only in the holy places, but also in the
crowds of Russian pilgrims who annually visit them, and as soon as he returned home he founded the Eastern Orthodox
Palestine Society, the object of which was to collect, work up, and disseminate information regarding the holy places of
the East and to improve the accommodation for Russian pilgrims. With this object he subscribed largely to the society, and
in 1883 some interesting excavations were made in Jerusalem. At the same time some pilgrim hostelries were organized by
the society. In the following year (1884) he married a daughter of the Grand Duke of Hesse and of Princess Alice of
England, who survives him but has borne him no children [Elizabeth 1864-1918, murdered by the Bolsheviks].

"What interested him most after the Eastern Orthodox Church was the army, and his military capabilities were brilliantly
recognised by his being appointed commander of the Preobrazhenski Regiment. This is considered a very high honour. It
is in this regiment (originally formed by Peter the Great, when a young man, from his jovial companions in the village of
Preobrazhensk, near Moscow) that the Heir-Apparent to the Throne generally receives his first military training, and it was
in the uniform of this regiment that the present Emperor appeared at his coronation in 1896.

"When the late Emperor Alexander III was carrying out, under the inspiration of M. [Konstantin Petrovich] Pobedonostsev
[1827-1907], on the basis of autocracy and Eastern orthodoxy, his policy of Russification among the non-Orthodox subject
nationalities of his empire, he recognised in the Grand Duke Serge a thoroughly convinced, energetic coadjutor, and
according he appointed him, in 1891, Governor-General of Moscow and commander of the troops of the Moscow military
district. So far as convictions and energy were concerned he justified his august brother's choice. His reforming zeal was
directed chiefly against the Jews, a large number of whom had been allowed, during the mild, easy-going administration
of his predecessor, Prince Dolgorouki, to settle in the ancient capital, contrary to the existing police regulations. These
unfortunate people were ordered to return at once to their homes. In vain they pleaded that they had been so long
settled in Moscow that they now had no other homes to go to; the fiat had gone forth, and it was carried out with the
utmost rigour.

"In 1896, during the coronation ceremonies at Moscow, the Grand Duke incurred momentary the Imperial displeasure on
account of the terrible disaster on the Khodinskoe Pelye, in which nearly 2,000 persons were crushed to death. [On 30
May 1896, 1389 people were killed in a catastrophic crowd-crush during festivities to celebrate the coronation]. As
Governor-General of the city he was formally responsible, but in the investigation which followed it was recognized that he
was not to blame as had been first supposed, and he was eventually reinstated in the Imperial favour.

"In recent events it is generally believed that he strongly urged his Imperial nephew to remain true to his father's policy of
maintaining autocracy intact, and it is supposed that he tried to make good his influence through the Empress, who is his
sister-in-law. When it seemed as if concessions would be made by Prince [Pyotr Dmitrievich] Sviatopolk-Mirski [1857-1914]
with the Emperor's approval, he resigned his post as Governor-General of Moscow, retaining only the military command.
This confirmed the general impression that he was the leader of the reactionary party, and it is, no doubt, as such that he
was singled out by the Terrorists as their first victim."



Prince Leopold Clement Philipp August Maria of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha [Hon GCVO 1911]


In an incident very reminiscent of the Mayerling Affair of 1889 when Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria and his mistress
Baroness Mary Vetsera died in an apparent murder-suicide, Prince Leopold was mortally wounded and his mistress, Lotte
Rybiska (although some sources give her christian name as Camilla and her surname as Rybika or Rybicka), killed herself
when they were unable to marry. The following account of the tragedy appeared in the Nelson, New Zealand "Colonist"
of 7 January 1916:-

"The whole of Vienna and the Court circles of Austria and Germany are now ringing with a love tragedy that recalls the
death of Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria and the Baroness Marie Vetsera, says a Buda Pesth correspondent writing in
"Lloyd's Weekly."

"The victims are Prince Leopold of Coburg and the beautiful daughter of an Austrian officer, Court Councillor Rybicska. It
is another chapter in the terrible history of Austrian Court life; for the father of the unfortunate Prince Leopold is Prince
Philip of Coburg, who is an Austrian general, while Prince Leopold is a captain in an Austrian Hussar regiment.

"It is a case of a Royal Prince deeply in love with a lady of high social standing, but below him in rank, and unable, owing
to the stringent German Royal family law, of marrying the woman of his choice. The woman lies dead, and the Prince is
injured for life, and may even die, at the hands of the woman he devotedly loved.

"The circumstances are pathetically simple. The Prince, who is only thirty-seven years of age, met at a social function
some two and a-half years ago Mlle. Lotte Rybicska, who, as the daughter of an officer in the Vienna State Police, moved
in high social circles, and immediately fell in love with her. The attraction was mutual; the girl became devoted to him and
hung on his every word. The Prince, being fully acquainted with the inexorable German law against matrimonial arrange-
ments beyond the Royal circle, could not have contemplated marrying Mlle. Rybicska; for it must have been quite evident
to him that the Royal family would not give its consent to such an alliance.

"She was, however, young - only twenty years old - inexperienced and Prince Leopold succeeded in persuading her that in
a short time he would be in a position to overcome any difficulties the family might present. With this plea he succeeded
in inducing her to leave her home. The family scene was pathetic in the extreme. Her sisters - tall, beautiful girls, with all
the charm of the Austrian aristocracy - pleaded with her, but in vain. She insisted on leaving her home with the Prince,
and, after a few weeks' travelling in the country, took apartments with the Prince in another part of the city.

"She was of a very determined character, and would never allow anyone to interfere with her plans. Moreover, she herself
regarded the prospects of ultimately becoming the bride of her Royal lover as certain.

"As she explained to her mother at the time, she was quite confident that in time her influence over the Prince would be
strong enough to allow her to achieve her aims of marrying Prince Leopold, in whose devotion she had the strongest
possible belief. She knew she was sacrificing her social position. She was willing to do it. She was certain of becoming the
wife of the man she loved and she was prepared to sacrifice honour, position, family pride, and future prospects, well
understanding that once leaving her home in such a way her father would never allow her to return.

"The story of the tragedy begins on Tuesday, October 14th [1915]. On that day Mlle. Rybicska, who was living in a flat
in Marokkaner Street, Vienna, gave permission for her servants to go out, and told them not to return until eight o'clock
in the evening. She was expecting her Royal lover. She had asked him to come and see her at five o'clock. At this hour he
arrived in his motor car, telling his chauffeur to return at a quarter to seven.

"A few minutes before six a soldier passing the house heard revolver shots from the flat on the ground floor. It startled
him. He entered the house, and called the attention of the porter to it. They both hurried up the steps of the flat, to find
that all the doors were locked. They knocked at one of the doors. A faint voice answered - "Fetch a locksmith; the keys
are missing." A locksmith arrived, and the porter and the soldier entered.

"A terrible scene met their eyes. The Prince was seen lying on the floor with four bullet wounds in his body; one had
pierced his lungs. He was holding a handkerchief to his eyes, and was murmuring: "I have been blinded! I have been
blinded!" Mlle. Rybicska was lying in a big armchair, head thrown backwards, evidently dead. By this time the Prince's
motor car had arrived. He was carried down to it, and taken to hospital, where it was found that in addition to dangerous
bullet wounds, he was suffering from the effects of vitriol [sulphuric acid] thrown in his face. One of his eyes had to be
removed and the other was discovered to be dangerously injured.

"What passed between the two previous to the tragedy has not yet been ascertained, for the Prince was unable to give
an account of what happened. Yet the story may be reconstructed from facts that were known to many. Prince Leopold
had been ordered to the front, and the girl had been urging him to arrange the marriage before he left. The Prince had tried
his best to get the consent of his father. All his entreaties were to no avail. Despairing of acknowledgement of Mlle.
Rybicska as his wife, he offered her half a million kronen [other sources say four million] as recompense. She disdainfully
refused.

"In Viennese society everybody knew of the intimate relations between the Prince and Mlle. Rybicska, and they also knew
that the Prince loved the girl very deeply and sincerely.

"The girl was never seen alone anywhere. When walking in the street her maid always followed her. She went with the
Prince on all his travels, and, as a matter of fact, the tragedy is regarded in Viennese social circles as the outcome of a
brutal family struggle against the natural inclinations of the Prince, who is not accused of any disloyalty towards the girl.
The blame is being placed on Prince Philip of Coburg, the father, who would rather see his son blind, and even dead, than
happy with the girl he loved."

Due to his injuries, which included the loss of one of his eyes and most of the flesh on his face, Prince Leopold died on
27 April 1916.



H.R.H. Gustaf Adolf Oscar Fredrik Arthur Edmund, Prince of Sweden [GCVO 1926]


Prince Gustaf was the eldest son of the Crown Prince of Sweden, Gustaf Adolf, who later became King Gustaf VI Adolf
of Sweden. In the normal course of events, Prince Gustaf would have become King of Sweden on the death of his father
in 1973, but King Gustaf VI Adolf was succeeded by his grandson, Prince Gustaf's son, Carl XVI Gustaf. Prince Gustaf was
killed in a plane crash in Denmark in January 1947. The following report appeared in "The Times" on 27 January 1947:-

'Prince Gustaf Adolf of Sweden and Miss Grace Moore [1898-1947], the singer and film actress, were among 22 people
killed when a Dutch Air Lines aeroplane in the daily service from Amsterdam to Stockholm crashed immediately after
taking off today from Kastrup airport, near Copenhagen. The 16 passengers and the crew of six were killed instantly. Four
of the passengers had come from Amsterdam in the machine, and the others joined at Copenhagen. Miss Moore, who had
just given a concert in Copenhagen, was on her way to Stockholm for a series of concerts there, beginning to-morrow.

'The aeroplane, a Dakota, arrived on schedule from Amsterdam, and went through the usual inspection while at Kastrup.
The Dutch chief pilot, Mr. Geyssendorffer, an experienced pilot, then taxied the aircraft to the south-west corner of the
airfield for take-off. Everything seemed in order, and the engines had been tested normally.

'When the machine became airborne onlookers noted that it rose at the abnormally sharp angle of almost 60deg[rees].
The pilot apparently tried to get it level, and for a moment seemed to succeed, but then the aeroplane again ascended
sharply to a height of over 300ft., went into a spin, made a half turn, and dived with a tremendous crash; it hit the
ground port wing first.

'Immediately flames engulfed the whole aircraft. Rescue crews, guards, with ambulances, rushed towards the wreckage,
but could do nothing in [the] face of the great heat. Only the charred bodies of the passengers and crew could be
extricated. The passengers had not stirred from their seats.

'Friends of the passengers who had come out to the airport all saw the disaster, and the whole rescue machinery of the
airport had been mobilized before the aircraft struck the ground near the main runway. The aircraft had about 1,800 litres
of petrol in its tanks and nearly half an hour passed before the rescuers could approach the débris.

'Representatives of the Dutch Air Lines in Copenhagen began investigations forthwith, but so far no clue to the cause of
the accident has been found. It has been ascertained that the aircraft was not carrying the maximum permitted weight,
either of cargo or passengers, and that the whole load was distributed in accordance with instructions.

'The Swedish Minister in Copenhagen was among the first to be told of the disaster. He informed the Danish Crown
Princess Ingrid, Prince Adolf Gustaf's sister, and Prince Sigward Bernadotte, her brother, who lives in Copenhagen. Three
others of those killed were Swedes, including Count Stenbock and a girl aged three; seven were Danes, including the well-
known singer Miss Gerda Neumann, and the rest were the Dutch crew and a Dutch passenger, two Frenchmen and a
Spaniard.

'The Swedish Court goes into mourning to-morrow. In Sweden deep sympathy goes to Princess Sybilla and her children,
and to the aged King. The Prince was on his way home after spending a few days in the Netherlands for wild boar hunting
at the invitation of Prince Bernhard. The Dutch Minister in Stockholm called at Drottningholm Castle to express the
condolences of the Dutch Government.'



Essad Pasha Toptani [Hon KCMG 1916]


Essad Pasha was a prominent figure in the murky world of Albanian politics during the early 20th century. He was
assassinated in Paris in June 1920, as reported in 'The Times' of 14 June:-

'Essad Pasha was assassinated in the streets here [Paris] this afternoon by an Albanian. Towards 1 o'clock today, Essad
Pasha, who made his home in France since his continued residence in Albania had been vetoed by the Italian Government,
left the Hotel Continental accompanied by a lady and was about to enter a motor-car when a man who had been hiding
behind one of the columns of the Arcade in front of the hotel rushed towards him just as the carriage door was being
opened.

'Drawing a revolver from his pocket the man fired point-blank at Essad Pasha, who was struck in the right side. He
staggered round and the assassin immediately fired another shot which hit the Pasha in the heart. As he fell to the ground
a chauffeur of the hotel leapt upon the murderer and seized him by the throat. Another chauffeur and several passers-by
also hurled themselves upon the man and he was with difficulty rescued from their hands by two policemen. The crowd
which had gathered came indeed very near to avenging the crime.

'Essad Pasha was taken into his room and a doctor was summoned. He could, however, do nothing but declare that the
Albanian leader was dead. The lady who was accompanying Essad Pasha was overwhelmed with grief and piteous cries of
"Mon Général" resounded through the hotel. Essad's secretaries and personal attendants were too overwhelmed by the
catastrophe to make any statement.

'The murderer was brought before the Commissariat of Police at 1.30 for preliminary examination. He declared that his
name was Aveni Rustem, that he was 24 years old, and an Albanian by birth. The murderer's face is badly bruised from
the attentions of the crowd. He seemed entirely detached from the events happening around him.

'In a statement made later, Essad Pasha's assassin said:- "I left Albania in May to come to France to pursue my studies.
I stopped for some days in Rome, where I bought the revolver with which I killed Essad Pasha. I had then no criminal
intent, but bought it to defend myself in case of need during my travels. Since I arrived in Paris I tried to meet my fellow-
countrymen, and it was thus that I had the opportunity to talk with one of Essad Pasha's secretaries, whom I only knew
as George. A little before 1 o'clock I went to the Rue de Castiglione and waited for George, the secretary, to go out, for
I wanted the address of a fellow country-man. Suddenly I saw Essad Pasha, whom I knew by sight. His gait appeared to
be over-proud. Then I lost my head. There flashed through my mind immediately memories of all the atrocities which the
Dictator had made by countrymen endure, all the harm he had done my country surged like lightning in my brain. So I
advanced towards him brandishing my revolver, and fired at him twice. I then fled, throwing my weapon away. I was seized
and was much buffeted about. I do not regret my action. I tell you that I have served the Albanian cause and all my fellow
country-men in thus getting rid of the general."

'Essad Pasha, Toptani, was head of the large family of Beys of Tirana, the Toptani, who claim descent, somewhat
dubiously, from the Topias who ruled Central Albania in the 15th century. The Toptani, who have a considerable force of
armed retainers, were suspected by Abdul Hamid [Sultan of the Ottoman Empire 1876-1909] of aiming too high. The Sultan
therefore invited Gani Bey, Essad's elder brother, to Constantinople, where he was murdered, as is supposed, at Abdul's
instigation. Gani's death was avenged by a faithful retainer, who shot the murderer, the son of the Grand Vizier, on Galata
Bridge. But this did not satisfy Essad, who looked for further vengeance.

'The Sultan then, presumably to propitiate Essad, made him brigadier-general and commandant of the gendarmerie at
Janina. Here, by various and generally nefarious means, he is reported to have made much money, and, after somewhat
violent quarrels with the Vali, was transferred to Scutari, where, in 1908, he was in command of the gendarmerie.

About this time, Essad, who was aware of the Young Turk plans, retired to Europe for a "cure," and did not return until
that party had gained the ascendancy. In joining the Young Turks Essad was prompted not only by a genuine desire to
obtain more liberty for Albania, but also by his unassuaged desire to avenge the death of Gani. He did so sweetly in the
following spring. He was one of the two men to whom was assigned the task of ordering Abdul Hamid to abdicate.

The Committee of Union and Progress at once embarked upon its plan of forcibly Ottomanizing the various nationalities
subject to Turkish rule, and provoked the violent hostility of Albania. Essad retired to Tirana, supported all demands for
Albanian rights, and even approached a British Consul and begged him to ask for a British Protectorate over Albania. Signs
of a general Balkan war were abundantly evident. The Turkish Government came to terms with the Albanians. But too late.
Essad perceived that Albania alone could not resist the combined forces of Greek, Serb, and Bulgar, and when war broke
out hastened with a division of Albanian Redifs to Scutari to aid Hussein Riza in its defence.

'Of the events that ensued there are many versions. It is certain that Hussein Riza, when he knew that Scutari was lost
to the Turks, determined to call in the aid of the mountain Albanian tribesmen without. He arranged to send messages to
instruct the tribes to attack the besieging forces in the rear so soon as they saw the Albanian flag hoisted on the citadel.
He planned simultaneously to make a sortie, and hoped thus to cut a way out. The plan was never carried out. On that
very night [30 January 1913] Hussein Riza was murdered as he was leaving the house of Essad, where he had been dining.
Essad assumed the command. He retired to the citadel, and never ventured forth without an escort. Finally, when the
population was dying of starvation, he surrendered the town.

'When Prince William of Wied arrived at Durazzo on March 7, 1914, to become Mpret [Prince] of the Shkipetars [Albanians],
Essad became Minister of War and of the Interior, but fell under suspicion of being in relations with the rebels, who
promptly took arms against the ill-starred Mpret. He was besieged in his house and bombarded by artillery, after which he
surrendered, and was deported from Durazzo on May 20 as an exile during the Mrpet's good pleasure.. However, that ruler
did not last long, and during the European War Essad returned and made himself President of an Albanian Provisional
Government [October 5, 1914], by threatening to shoot the entire Senate if he were not elected by a given time. His
Government sided with the Entente, and when force of circumstances compelled him to leave his native land he withdrew
to Salonika.'

As mentioned in the above report, Essad's assassin was Avni Rustemi (1895-1924), a young teacher and political activist
who viewed Essad Pasha as a traitor for having murdered Hussein Riza. At his subsequent trial, in December 1920, Rustemi
was acquitted, after which he returned to Albania as a national hero. There he entered politics and was elected to
Parliament where he became involved in a bitter struggle with the followers of Ahmet Zogu, who later declared himself
King Zog. Rustemi was assassinated by one of Zogu's agents in April 1924.



Basil Zaharoff [Hon GBE 1918 and Hon GCB 1919]


The Australian monthly magazine "Parade," in its January 1950 issue, contained the following biography of Basil Zaharoff:-

'Beginning about 1877, for more than half a century a bearded, cloaked, distinguished-looking figure drifted like a shadow
through the Embassies and War Ministries of Europe, Asia, and America. All he seemed to do was to engage in long secret
conferences, from time to time jotting dates and figures in a small notebook. Yet, as often as not, no sooner had the
"Mystery Man of Europe" paid a call than revolution flared, old border quarrels were revived, or once-peaceful little nations
began angrily challenging their neighbours. This man with death at his heels was Basil Zaharoff, armament-salesman
extraordinary, dubbed "The Widow-Maker," and chief apostle of Mars, the pagan god of war.

'From a modest beginning as a street ragamuffin, Zaharoff rose to two positions of note: he was one of the richest men
on earth, and the most hated man alive. During the 1920s Zaharoff and his colleagues in the cannon trade were reviled as
the organisers of war and bloodshed, and it is certainly true that he made a practice of selling arms to hereditary enemies
like the Greeks and Turks, creating a snowballing market. Zaharoff was reputed to lurk outside the innumerable Peace
Conferences; in a quiet garden of Versailles, perhaps, the delegates would slip out from the conference chamber where
the air was thick with the cooings of ambassadors of peace, and whisper to him while he took his everlasting notes: "Two
hundred cannon for Poland? Certainly, M. Paderewski. A thousand flamethrowers for Greece? Money no object? I think it
can be managed, M. Venizelos. Five hundred tons of poison gas, M. Briand? With pleasure...." and so on, orders, orders,
orders. At least, this is how Emil Ludwig depicts Zaharoff in a play about the Versailles Conference.

'But there was another, little-known, side of this sinister travelling salesman. He tried, with a great deal of success, to
conceal every single authentic detail of his life from the world; but it appears that at the age of 40 he fell in love with a
girl, a Royal duchess with a string of haughty names, and waited 28 years for death to free her from a demented, violent
husband; then married the widow of 60, only to be grief-stricken by her death two years later. This touching episode is
the only non-commercial aspect of a life shrouded in mystery which took him to a position of legendary power, adviser of
Governments, promoter of wars, claimed as a citizen and loaded with honours by nation after nation.

'His grimly romantic career began in Constantinople, whither young Zacharias Basileios Zaharoff, as he was christened, was
taken by his parents while he was still a child. A Greek by birth, on both sides of his family, he had been born in the down-
at-heel Anatolian township of Mughla, in Turkish territory, in 1849. As a quick-witted urchin in Constantinople, the
crossroads of East and West, Zaharoff soon acquired the commercial jargon of half a dozen European tongues and at least
two Oriental ones. Zaharoff took the first steps toward respectability when a rich Greek merchant named Hephentides, a
friend of his family, sent him to the best school in Constantinople, an English establishment maintained for the sons of
English residents.

'When he left school at 18, however, he drifted back to the old atmosphere and might have become indistinguishable from
the thousands of idle young men in his neighbourhood, picking up an irregular living from questionable sources, had not the
rich family friend come again to the rescue. He made Zaharoff his private secretary, and in time permitted him to act as
his proxy in his general merchandising business. For two years all went well, then Zaharoff suddenly absconded with about
£300 which he obtained by depositing £1000 worth of his employer's goods with an agent. Hephentides traced him to
to London, proceeded against him, and Zaharoff was imprisoned and brought to trial; but Hephentides once again proved
kind and consented to accept his assurance of repayment, upon which the British court deferred judgment, ordering him to
enter into his own recognisances in £100 to come up for judgment if called upon. He took the bond, was liberated and
promptly disappeared.

'Zaharoff soon turned up in Athens, claiming that the charges laid against him by his late employer (whom, he said, was
his uncle) were quite unjust. According to Zaharoff, he had been made a partner in the business, but had been cheated
of his share of the profits, and had been forced to collect what was due to him and go for an extended overseas journey.
He added a lurid account of having escaped across the roof of the Constantinople gaol after shooting a warder, which, it
has been pointed out, is too much like the account of a prison-escape in the Memoirs of Casanova to be mere coincidence.
In spite of the suspicion with which his improbable story was received, Zaharoff was soon deeply embroiled in Athenian
politics. At this distance in history, it is well nigh impossible to disentangle from a confusion of conflicting evidence what
party it was that Zaharoff worked for. Quite possibly he worked for them all.

'At any rate he played his usual role of glib under-cover man, invaluable because of his command of several languages and
his flexible allegiances. Some say he was a member of the "machine" of the liberal, Venizelos. Others assert that he was in
the pay of the monarchist, Skuludos. It is, however, established that in 1877 one of Zaharoff's political protectors
recommended him to an English armament firm, the Nordenfelt Guns and Ammunition Company, as Balkan representative at
a salary of £5 a week plus commission on armaments sold. Zaharoff was then 28, and just the man to peddle arms through
the Balkans, always a promising market in the right hands. His employers wisely understood the intimate relationship
between politics and the arms trade and gave him a free hand. Hot-blooded Balkan politicians welcomed into their deliber-
ations the brisk, many-tongued business man who could cap political discourses with specifications of the new nation-
builder, the Nordenfelt quick-firing gun, parent of our modern machine-guns, and the Balkans remained in continual ferment
from the time of the Franco-Prussian War (1870) until World War I swallowed them up in larger struggles. Servia,
Montenegro and Bulgaria revolted and the atrocities committed horrified Europe; the Russians declared war on Turkey; the
Balkans united for once to do the same, and then quarrelled over the spoils.

'Almost every time Zaharoff visited a Balkan capital he had something new to offer. Nordenfelt's and the Maxim Gun Co.
amalgamated and produced better and better quick-firing guns. Cannon became heavier, muzzle velocity greater, armour-
plate thicker and more blast-resisting. Soon Zaharoff was dilating to Balkan statesmen about a revolutionary new flying
machine, the aeroplane, which would bring liberty and peace at long last; then he had submarines for his clients. Zaharoff
followed the classical method. For instance, after he had sold the first submarine ever sold to a government, to Greece,
he went secretly to Turkey, her enemy, sold two there, and then returned to Greece and intimated that since he knew on
certain evidence that Turkey had two submarines against Greece's one, he really felt he ought to sell Greece two more to
be on the safe side, and so on.

'There are, of course, the usual stories of bribery and intrigue which assemble around the name of almost any armament
king. He is said to have had adroit ways with Generals and Ministers for War who required to be "insulted with a very
considerable bribe" before they would do business. Then, according to some writers, there were steam yachts "sold" for
£10, cheques passed across in cigarette packages, "bets" which Zaharoff would always lose about what year it was, or
what day of the week it was; worthless furniture bought as "antiques" by Zaharoff for huge sums.

'These things may well be true, but they cannot be proved. It is asserted, too, that Zaharoff used his dark good looks
upon women when their husbands or lovers rejected his wares; in this way, it is said, he met the Duchess of Villafranca,
who, quite apart from the tale of the long love-affair which followed, introduced him the Spanish War Minister and netted
him £5 million in armament orders. They are said to have met during a railway journey in Spain on Zaharoff's first visit in
1889. The Duke and Duchess of Villafranca de los Cabelleros travelled on the same train on their honeymoon, but during
the journey the duke had a fit of brutal madness, the first his 25-years-ols wife had witnessed, and she fled in terror to
the first man she could find, who happened to be Zaharoff. The suave Greek, then 40, calmed her fears, provided for her
safety, and as soon afterwards as he decently could cultivated her acquaintance with a view to her possible usefulness to
him as a contact. After that they met frequently on their respective travels - it was whispered, by design. The duchess
was prohibited by her religion from seeking divorce, but the friendship deepened none the less.

'Zaharoff's fortune was now rapidly expanding. In 1897 the Maxim-Nordenfelt companies amalgamated with the Vickers
armament company, and were thus enabled to build, arm and equip complete battleships for foreign customers. By 1910
Zaharoff had a controlling interest in Vickers; in the meantime he had been to South America, Russia, Japan, collecting
orders all the time; he had sold armaments, it was said, to both sides in the Spanish-American, Boer and Russo-Japanese
wars. Wherever war broke out, or threatened, Zaharoff would hurry to the spot with his little notebook, as a kind of doctor
in reverse. Arms were supplied on credit, which never failed to stimulate business. Then, in 1914, the tall piles of
armaments began tumbling upon each other, and Zaharoff and his colleagues reaped their harvest. On July 31, 1914,
Zaharoff was made Commander of the Legion of Honour by the President of France for "exceptional service" to the Republic.

'During the war, it is said, Zaharoff collected £21 million of the stated profits of £34 million made by Vickers. He was, in
effect, the Munitions Minister of the Allies; he travelled everywhere in a British warship, and marshals conferred with him
before they launched their offensives. Zaharoff's interests were still with books purporting to tell the true story of his
motherland, Greece. and he cherished an ambition to make Anatolia where he was born part of a Greater Greece.
Throughout the war he poured his wealth into the tangle of Greek politics, which swayed back and forth between the
Allies and the Central Powers, and it is said that he lost half his fortune by arming out of his own pocket the abortive
Greek attack upon Turkey immediately after the war. Everywhere he financed and armed resistance to the Bolshevik regime
in Russia and the New Turkey of Mustapha Kemal Pasha. In 1919 he was awarded the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour,
and in 1921 Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath. Gradually Sir Basil Zaharoff, as he was then [sic], withdrew from active
control of the Vickers interests.

'The Duke of Villafranca had died in 1923. Zaharoff's marriage to the duchess in 1924 was a very private one, but it
aroused the greatest interest throughout Europe, and when it was followed soon afterwards by an unusual venture, his
purchase of the Casino at Monte Carlo, a crop of books purporting to tell the true story of his life appeared. By buying the
Casino Zaharoff had actually bought control of the pocket-handkerchief state of Monaco, since the public revenues were
paid entirely out of the Casino profits. He bought it for £1,000,000 and sold it two years later to the banking house of
Dreyfus for £3,400,000, the improvement in price reflecting the added profit he had brought to the concern by his shrewd
reorganisation.

'In an unobtrusive way Zaharoff became something of a philanthropist in his declining years. In Paris, American financiers
had given him the first drubbing of his life over the world control of oil shortly after the war; this did not prevent him from
giving £100,000 to the "Save the Franc" fund, and vast sums to establish chairs of aviation (a pet interest) at the
Universities of London, Paris and Leningrad, and professorships of literature named after Marshals Foch and Haig, at Oxford
and Paris. Noticing that the monkeys at the Paris Zoo were mangy, and hearing that the chief lion suffered from
rheumatism because of the damp quarters, he once gave £200,000 to that institution. At the end of his career, his gifts
and the depression between them had whittled his fortune down to £5 million.

The death of the duchess in 1926 crushed Zaharoff. He took less and less interest in Vickers, which amalgamated to
become Vickers-Armstrong, and retired from its position as leader of the world armaments cartel to develop as a leader of
British heavy industry. Zaharoff sold his Vickers interests and retired to a French chateau which he had bought as an
engagement gift for his duchess. In 1936 he died there, almost forgotten by the world. The announcement of his death
caused little interest, except perhaps that here and there an elderly pacifist might have been heard to mutter "good
riddance."
