Biography

Born in London and educated by the Rosminian Fathers at Ratcliffe College,[1] Stuart came to the United States as a young man to ranch in Colorado. On returning to Europe he began a career as a journalist in London for a few years, interrupted by service in the British Royal artillery during World War I. After the Armistice he pursued his newspaper career in America.
