John Charles POWER [c.1886-1944]
John Power retired from the Chinese Maritime Customs in 1939.
He and his wife Mary were interned at Stanley after the 1941 surrender but they were released because Mr Power was Irish.
He assisted Dr Selwyn-Clarke in his campaign of relief activity and eventually worked underground for the British Army Aid Group. He was arrested in June 1944 and died some time thereafter as a result of mistreatment.
