FAMOUS RELIC OF THE PAST
Ircn Pillar Of Delhi, Made of Welded Metal. Was Wrought Some f.5oo
 Years Ago.

The famous Iron Pillar of Delhi. which stands in the inner courtyard ot the Duh mosque. about nine miles south of the modern city, has always excited the interest of metallurgists and engineers as well as historians IL was probably made about 413 A D.. and moved 10 it's present site in 1852 As t is between 23 and 24 feet high, F inches in diameter at the base. and T. al the tip, and probably weighs over six tons, it's manufacture at SO early 8 period as the fifth century par takes somewhat of the marvellous And II vas rendered even more of a manu- featuring wonder when the discovery was made some years ago that 1t was a solid piece of welded wrought-iron. The curious yellowish tinge of the up- per part had led to the belief that it consisted of brass or bronze. The weld ing together of such a mass of metal in those primitive days. centuries be- fore the era of modern forges and drop hammers, must have been a mighty troublesome job for King Can dras iron workers
 Some years ago Sir Alexander Gun ningham had rough analysis of the metal in the Pillar made. which finally proved it 10 be wrought iron. Sir Robert hsdfield. a past president of the British Iron and Steel Institute. recently obtained new samples of the column and subjected them to a care ful and very thorough analysis-"the first thorough analysis he believes. The result was as follows: Carbon. o.0s; silicon. e.e46; sulphur. O.0os; phosphorus. 0Il4 iron, 9s72; total 9ss66@ Plainly really excellent type of wrought iron. says Sir Robert. and much to be wondered at when the date of it's manufacture is borne in mind. The small quantity of sulphur indicates the use of unusually pure fuel probably charcoal The absence of manganese. an element usually present in wrought iron. is also of fn- terest The specific gravity of the metal vas found 10 be 7.s1.
