Holland was a very remarkable man, gifted with a fine intellect and great soientific attainments sad was a devoted son of Ireland: Born at Liscannor, County Clare, February 24, 1842, he was ednoated at the Christian Brothers" Sohool in Limerick and emigrated to Amerios. At a very early age he developed a taste for "mechanical studies: 'bad, although not a professional on- gineer, was one of the boat informed and best equipped scientifio men in the country. His chief stadios and experiments wore in the line of submarine warfare, but his knowledge of the theories of serial locomotion was almost as complete. Forty years ago, when he hoped to make he submarine a success, he fully in tended to devote his attention: to an airship, and he had no doubt" that in time he would be able to build a machine capable of cross- ing the Atlantic.
