Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Theory and Practice of Bridge Construction: In Timber, Iron and Steel

A sad, an almost tragic note is necessarily imported into this short preface by reason of the conditions under which it was produced. The author provided the outlines when his death in the plenitude of his mental powers was impending, and when the revision of the proofs of a work that had occupied eight or nine years of the limited leisure of a busy life was taxing a physical strength which up to a point had seemed abundant. Mr. Morgan Davies completed the task he had undertaken - that was a source of comfort and solace to him in his last hours - and whilst still comparatively young, died as he had lived, the embodiment of patient courage, devoted to the profession he had enriched by his labours.
