  General Notes:

Sydney was a Tea Planter & Solicitor in partnership with his Uncle Villiers Julius in Colombo.

Sydney succeeded Villiers as senior partner of Julius & Creasy. His winning ways of friendliness and charm soon endeared him to all the communities. He was renowned for his professional efficiency and meticulous attention to detail and his departure from Sri Lanka at the height of his success was universally regretted. Several matters of importance benefited from the negotiating acumen of Sydney Julius, where he acted as a peace-maker and settled contentious issues.
