Abstract
WHEN Buxton was selected as the locality for the autumn meeting of the Iron and Steel Institute doubts were freely expressed as to the suitability of the choice. These doubts proved to be groundless, for the' attendance of members was larger than usual, and visits to the Midland Railway works at Derby, the London and North-Western works at Crewe, and to the Staveley Iron Works afforded opportunities for instruction, while the beautiful weather conditions caused the Duke of Devonshire's garden-party at Chatsworth, and other excursions in Derbyshire, to be very successful and enjoyable functions.
