Description

Excerpt from The Journal of the Iron and Steel Institute, 1898, Vol. 54 We have learnt long ago to admire the genius of your ih ventors, the grandeur and universal bearing of your discoveries, your pre-eminent practical energy, and your grand style of managing to create and to develop the iron industry of your country. This industry has been practised even in Sweden ages ago, although we have only succeeded as yet in obtaining but rather modest results on a quantitatively modest scale, and thus it is - and how could it be otherwise - that we Swedish ironmasters greet your coming and the sight of you in our midst with joy and delight, hailing you as our teachers, our masters. I beg to appeal to your benevolent complacency and forbear ance, that you will kindly accept the plain and unpretending reception, which is all we have to offer in answer to your generous coming. We should be very happy if we succeeded, to some extent, in rendering your stay amongst us at least so far tolerable that your time may not be altogether wasted, and that the pains and trouble you have taken by leaving your comfortable homes may not prevent you from leaving with a kind remembrance of our country, our city, and our free institutions.
