Bourne settled back in Nottingham, where he founded a cotton-doubling business, in partnership with his brother-in-law J.B. Tolley. Some time shortly after his return to England, he sold off his interests in Bourne and Shepherd studios, and from then on, had nothing more to do with commercial photography; however his archive of some 2,200 glass plate negatives remained with the studio, and were constantly re-printed and sold, over the following 140 years, until their eventual destruction, in a fire at Bourne & Shepherd’s present studio in Calcutta, on February 6th 1991.
He became a very successful and prosperous Nottingham businessman; founding the Britannia Cotton Mills, and becoming a local magistrate. Although continuing to photograph as a relaxation, and belonging to the local Photographic Society, much of his creative energy from this time onwards was devoted to water-colour painting. He died in Nottingham on 24th April 1912.
Bourne is justly regarded as one of the finest landscape and travel photographers of 19th century India; combining a fine eye for composition with high technical expertise. He wrote extensively about his travels in the Himalayas (one of the very few photographers in India to do so), in a long series of letters, which appeared in The British Journal of Photography, between 1863 and 1870.
Dabur Nepal closes down its factory

Dabur Nepal closes down its factory
Amid huge ‘extortion threat’ by a trade union wing of the CPN (Maoist, Dabur Nepal Pvt. Ltd. (DNPL)—one of the largest joint venture companies in the country—has closed down its manufacturing unit at Rampur Tokani of Bara district in southern Nepal.
Dabur Nepal officials have not said anything regarding the reason behind closure of its factory but reports said Dabur Nepal officials decided to close down their factory after senior pro-Maoist trade union leaders visited the factory, threatened the DNPL managers and placed a number of demands including a “donation” worth millions of rupees.
Talking to reporters in southern town of Birgunj on Friday, president of Birgunj Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Bijay Sarawagi, said the Maoist-affiliated All Nepal Trade Union Federation had given ultimatum to local industries to fulfill their demands by Sunday. But they started threatening the industrial units since early this week, manhandled managers and spread terror.
“We can’t pay taxes both to the government and Maoists. The new government—that is in direct touch with the Maoists—must take immediate measures to resolve this problem,” he added.
Meanwhile, industry sources in Kathmandu said they have invited Maoist leadership for talks within the next 48 hours. “If they don’t stop their extortion and threats by then, all the factories in Bara and Parsa districts will be closed down indefinitely,” a leading industrialist told Nepalnews over phone.
Set up in 1992, Dabur Nepal is an FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Group) company, which caters to Nepali markets besides exporting its products to India. Dabur Food, Dabur Nepal and Dabur Balsara are owned by Dabur India Ltd. that sells its products in over 50 countries around the world.
Dabur Nepal also deals with medicinal plants and runs its own nursery and bee-keeping programme in Nepal. nepalnews.com by May 19 06

We are proud of our long history that has helped to build our reputation today. Here are some of the milestones in the story of the London Stock Exchange.
1698 John Castaing begins to issue “at this Office in Jonathan’s Coffee-house” a list of stock and commodity prices called “The Course of the Exchange and other things”. It is the earliest evidence of organised trading in marketable securities in London.
1698 Stock dealers are expelled from the Royal Exchange for rowdiness and start to operate in the streets and coffee houses nearby, in particular in Jonathan’s Coffee House in Change Alley.
1720 The wave of speculative fever known as the “South Sea Bubble” bursts.
1748 Fire sweeps through Change Alley, destroying most of the coffee houses. They are subsequently rebuilt.
1761 A group of 150 stock brokers and jobbers form a club at Jonathan's to buy and sell shares.
1773 The brokers erect their own building in Sweeting’s Alley, with a dealing room on the ground floor and a coffee room above. Briefly known as “New Jonathan’s”, members soon change the name to “The Stock Exchange”.
1801 On 3 March, the business reopens under a formal membership subscription basis. On this date, the first regulated exchange comes into existence in London, and the modern Stock Exchange is born.
1802 The Exchange moves into a new building in Capel Court.
1812 The first codified rule book is created.
1836 The first regional exchanges open in Manchester and Liverpool.
1845 More speculative fever – this time “Railway mania” – sweeps the country.
1854 The Stock Exchange is rebuilt.
1876 A new Deed of Settlement for the Stock Exchange comes into force.
1914 The Great War means the Exchange market is closed from the end of July until the new year. The Stock Exchange Battalion of Royal Fusiliers is formed – 1,600 volunteered, 400 never returned.
1923 The Exchange receives its own Coat of Arms, with the motto “Dictum Meum Pactum” (My Word is My Bond).
1939 The start of World War Two. The Exchange is closed for 6 days and reopens on 7 September. The floor of the House closes for only one more day, in 1945 due to damage from a V2 rocket – trading then continues in the basement.
1972 Her Majesty the Queen opens the Exchange's new 26-storey office block with its 23,000sq ft trading floor.
1973 First female members admitted to the market. The 11 British and Irish regional exchanges amalgamate with the London exchange.
1986 Deregulation of the market, known as “Big Bang”:
1991 The governing Council of the Exchange is replaced with a Board of Directors drawn from the Exchange's executive, customer and user base. The trading name becomes “The London Stock Exchange”.
1995 We launch AIM – our international market for growing companies.
1997 SETS (Stock Exchange Electronic Trading Service) is launched to bring greater speed and efficiency to the market. The CREST settlement service is launched.
2000 We transfer our role as UK Listing Authority with HM Treasury to the Financial Services Authority (FSA). Shareholders vote to become a public limited company: London Stock Exchange plc.
