15371The Yorkshire Union of Mechanics Institutes Victoria Chambers Leeds. 9 November 1878. 1p. 12mo. In good condition on lightly aged and creased paper. Consisting of a series of appalling puns the letter reads: 'Dear Sir Thanks for the Time Table it was a "rail" service and for your offer of a meal which will suit me to a "T" and for your selection of a bed as I prefer Bedford to Bedlam and for your instructions to change my train. It is easier to miss a train than to train a miss. I feel now that I shall get to Royston with only the Hitchen that is necessary and I am itching to get there when I feel that I am Warren-ted safe. I remain My dear Sir Yours truly'. The 'signature' consists of a self-portrait of his bearded head in profile smoking a cigarette. According to W. H. K. Wright's 'West-Country Poets' 1896 Curzon 'had long been actively engaged in his leisure in promoting the foundation of educational institutes in London and elsehwere . In 1853 he was appointed secretary of the Warrington Mechanics' Institute; he then removed to Huddersfield in the same capacity and went to Leeds where he still resides in 1871. Since that time he has been the "head centre" or organizing secretary of the Yorkshire Union of Institutes .'. Warren was the founder of the 'Royston Crow' newspaper.

7976<br /> <br /> Four books from the research library of world-renowned expert in soil dynamics and earthquake engineering Robert V. Whitman. Whitman earned both his masters and doctoral degrees in engineering from MIT where he then taught for over 40 years and remained an active member of the MIT community for many more years as a professor emeritus. <br /> Whitman worked with Professor Donald Taylor during his doctoral studies. Their work on slope stability under dynamic loading established the basis for the "Newmark sliding block method" for estimating earthquake-induced ground displacements. In 1981 he presented the Terzaghi Lecture on risk analysis in geotechnical engineering at the American Society of Civil Engineer’s National Convention. He won the Terzaghi Award for outstanding contributions to knowledge in the fields of soil mechanics subsurface and earthwork engineering in 1987. Much of his later research focused on a methodology for estimating losses from earthquakes and he led the committee that developed a computer software called HAZUS which FEMA expanded to include floods and hurricanes.<br /> <br /> Taylor Donald W.
