    He was born in Skopije, Kosovo, Serbia in 1884. In 1907 he resigned as trustee of St Saviour's Church, preparatory no doubt to starting on his travels. Having been at the Economics Department at Belgrade, he went first to the University of Liege in Belgium, where he was accepted in 1909. In 1910 he was living in D'Ivellesin Babant, Belgium. After then it appears he was at the Economics Department in Bristol and in c 1911 was writing from London for help from the Serbian Government with funds to learn English. On 1 March 1912 he was admitted to London Colney Hatch Asylum. He was described as a clerk, living at 161 Lupus Street, Pimlico. Along with a number of other patients he was transferred from Colney Hatch to Three Counties Hospital, chargeable to London County Council. He was soon transferred to "Private" Patient Status and as the Civil Register for Private Patients has not been deposited for the period, no further information has been able to be discovered about him. He had left the Hospital by 1933 and had not died there.
