Appendix No. 9. Burnettizing on Havre de Grace Bridge
I have your circular of the 15th, in regard to preservation of timber. All of the timber used in the first building of the Susquehanna bridge at this place was Burnettized. I have no experience with any other process, and no experience of any kind with treatment of cross-ties.
