Any further information which may be considered necessary should be written on this page, and not in a separate sheet.
I am unable to give the exact dates of the earlier appointments referred to on the face page, and in addition to those dates I assisted several firms, on special work, for a short period, during the time my articles expired.
I have never left any appointment at my own request, and my brother, Consulting Engineer of 17 Victoria Street, Westminster, who holds there, would be pleased to vouch.
The originals of other testimonials are referred to below.
I may add that I lectured on Building Construction and Machine Drawing for the City Technical Instruction Committee - at the Bolton Academy of Art - on the absence of the chief lecturer, and have passed the preliminary examination qualifying me (before the method of appointment was altered) for taking the professional Examination for "Iron County Surveyor."
