To Preserve Old Land Mark

engineer OF the Rock Island road, who
saw SO years Of active service In rail-
reading. Is the originator of splendid
idea having for its object the preservs-
ton Of one Of the historic spots OF this
community. This is no less than the
abutment of t he first bridge which
spanned the Mississippi river, now
standing on the north shore of the gov
eminent island. Mr.. Davis has con-
cefved a plan to have this abutment
overhauled and cemented, with view
Of preserving it as it now stands, and

In 1868 the draw span was being
turned, after the passage of boat,
when it was caught by sudden
squall of wind and overturned side
wise, breaking in two in the middle,
the ends dropping into the water. In
it's fall one of the watchmen on the
draw was carried down with it and
drowned. A track was at once laid to
the river, parallel with the waters
edge, and passengers and freight
were transferred by boat until the
bridge was repaired. Mr.. Lassig, en-
gineer for the bridge works Of the
American Bridge company of Chicago,
scaled the sizes of the tinbers re-
quired for the renewal of the broken
draw timbers from the plans. Order
was made on the mills in Michigan,
and though that timber was then
standing in the woods, the order was
filled and the draw was erected in so
days from the date of the fire.
The old original bridge becoming
too light for the traffic, wire cables
were added to help support the loads
till finally a new bridge was decided
upon, much heavier than the original.
In its erection floor beams much
longer than the width Of the Old
bridge were placed on the old spans,
and upon their projecting ends the
new spans were erected; that is, one
line of trusses outside and upstream.
When the new husses were ready to
carry the load each old span was re-
moved, and the new trusses then
forming the spans were pulled in to
ward each other until they occupied
the position previously occupied by
the old trusses; then track was I'd
on the floor beams, and the projecs-
ing ends sawed on By this method
it was not necessary to block The
river with falseTork
At the same time that the draw
span was blown into the river the ice
had moved, about three days before,
showing the second pier from the
Iowa shore on its foundations 231a
feet down stream, breaking OF tee
ends of all the bottom and top chords,
with one exception, on the span ezss
of the pier. That single unbroksn
chord carried the span until it could
be safely supported
When the new government bridge
was opened and the old bridge aban-
doned, the railway company removed
all the timber of the old bridge
(which timber was all creosoted) and
used IL in building platforms. ercs

cover all cost. While Mr.. Davis is the
originator of the idea, IT is his desire
that the old settlers societies of Rock
Island and Scott counties should father
the movement and that the money be
raised by popular subscription. H. g.
Gable, president Of the Rock Island
Savings bank, is enthusiastic over the
idea, and AZ Mr.. Davis request has for
the time being consented to act as
treasurer of the fund, and all subscrip-
tons sent to him will be duly acknowl-
edged.
But few Rock Islanders probably
realize that the Rock Island bridge
was the first bridge to cross the Mis-
sissippt at any point.
The surveys for the first bridge to
Cross the Mississippi river were made
by the civil engineers of the Missis-
sfppi River Bridge company in 1853.
This company was an Independent cor
poration which built railway and the
bridges over the Rock Island slough
(now Sylvan water,) the island Of Rock
island, and the Mississippi river. con-
Meeting the Chicago & Rock Island
road, in Rock Island, with the Missis-
sippi & Missouri railway at Davenport.
The location across the island and
river was made in the years 1S5S-54,
