Donnelly and C.Y.Tung

Stephen Kentwell in his comment on the Yentai article pointed out that Donnelly partnered with C.Y.Tung as an advisor to launch Chinas first shipping company in Shanghai in 1941 ( China Shipping Trust Company ) of which Donnelly was made General Manager. It was re-established in Hong Kong in 1947 again with Donnelly as GM. Tung's company grew to be one of the largest shipping companies in the world. Tung and Donnelly remained friends until the latter's death in 1952 . Kentwell sent me the 2 pictures below , taken by Donnelly , of CSTC's first two ships .
