Brassey was especially fortunate in his heir. We find some indication of this in a chapter towards the dose of Mr. Helps' volume, in which are thrown together the son's miscellaneous recollections of the father. The chapter M 178 ^ TRUE CAPTAIN OF INDUSTRY. affords further proof that the ^eat contractor was not made of the same clay as the Fisks and Vanderbilts— that he was not a mere market-rigger and money-grubber — but a really great man, devoted to a special calling. He is represented by hi...s son as having taken a lively interest in a wide and varied range of subjects — engineering subjects especially as a matter of course, but not engineering subjects alone. He studied countries and their people, evincing the utmost interest in Chicago, speculating on the future industrial prosperity of Canada, and imparting the results of his observations admirably when he got home. Like all great men, he had a poetic element in his character. He loved the beauties of nature, and delighted in mountain scenery.
