Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

The historical records of the Science of Engineering are notoriously incomplete and general knowledge of the origin of commonplace inventions is lamentably poor.<br><br>The nineteenth century produced many remarkable men whose works are everywhere in constant use, but whose names are lost to History.<br><br>This story, originally intended for publication in a well-known magazine, is offered to the reader who can appreciate a record of the inventions and works of noble minds and who takes a just pride in the achievements of his countrymen.<br><br>Upon the death of Mr. Isaac Dodds, in 1882, practically no public mention was made of his contributions to engineering science; only the late Mr. Charles Manby, Secretary of the Institute of Civil Engineers, ventured to record some of his works.
