Address at the Annual Convention at Hygeia Hotel, Fortress Monroe, Va., June 8th, 1892
A provision of the Constitution of the Society requires that the President shall deliver an address at the Annual Convention, and, in compliance therewith, I have the honor to appear before you this evening. As I have not been of late years actively engaged in the practice of our profession, and am, for that reason, unable to give from personal experience notes of recent works and improvements marking the strides of current progress in the science of engineering, it has been suggested to me that you would be interested in a historical narration of some of the events and problems or a much earlier period, and the manner of meeting them in the construction, development and operation of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
