Framed Print of The late Joseph Locke, Esq. M.P. 1860. Creator: Unknown
The late Joseph Locke, Esq. M.P. 1860. An eminent engineer and enlightened man of science...[who] early displayed taste and capacity for scientific knowledge and the practice of engineering. He obtained employment under the great Stephenson, and, gaining the esteem of that distinguished man, he became himself a constructor of railways, and rose rapidly to the highest rank among the scientific men of this country, Mr. Locke was a member, and latterly President, of the Institution of Civil Engineers, and under his direction the Glasgow, Paisley, and Greenock Railway was founded, and attained a high state of prosperity. Mr. Locke received the cross of the Legion of Honour in 1845 for his construction of a French railway. Mr. Locke possessed an estate at Honiton, and was first returned for that borough in 1847, which he continued to represent until his lamented demise...Mr. Locke died on the 18th of September, at Moffat, in Dumfriesshire, and his death, coming so soon after the deaths of Stephenson and Brunei, was the more to be felt as a severe national loss. Our Portrait of Mr. Locke was drawn from a bust taken from the life by Mr. E. W. Wyon, of Stanhope-street, Regent's Park'. From Illustrated London News, 1860.
