J. Clarke Publishing Company RODERICK LACHLAN MACLEAY. Among the influential citizens of Portland none are held in higher esteem than Roderick Lachlan Macleay, of Portland, who for many years has been actively identified with affairs of importance and is recognized as one of the substantial men of his city. He is a scion of one of the most distinguished families of Oregon, being the son of Donald Macleay, mentioned at considerable length in another part of this publication. A native of Portland, he was born October 15, 1874, received a good education and early became associated with his father in the management of the latter's extensive business affairs. Since the death of Donald Macleay the various properties, both in corporation stock and real estate, have been incorporated as the Macleay Estate Company, of which Roderick L. Macleay is the active manager, in which capacity he has largely enhanced its value and made substantial additions. He is a director in a number of financial, commercial and industrial organizations and is regarded as a man of clear-headed judgment and wise discrimination in business affairs. He is a member of the leading clubs of Portland and is held in the highest esteem throughout the range of his wide acquaintance.
