DESIGN FOR MUNICIPAL BUILDINGS GLASGOW, He was a thor- oughly nineteenth- century arcliitect, who constantly in- spired himself from what he considered the best examples, but who was never tied by precedent to any absurdity, and who never descend- ed to slavishly copy any example, how- ever good.

His quiet humour and quaint repartees, his well - known figure and splendidly modelled head will be sadly missed by those who, for too short a time, had the pleasure and privilege of intercourse with him. John Keppie.
