Synopsis

Excerpt from The Sweep of Time: The Circumstances Leading to the First Development of a Time-Tested Solution to a Problem in Municipal Street Sanitation

I knew John Murphy. My earliest years in the industry overlapped the closing years of his association with it.

Quiet, thoughtful, realistic, slow of speech, he was a man of conviction.

It was half a century ago that he revealed to my asso ciates of later years his concept of what a motor driven sweeper which would settle the dust, sweep the pavement, pickup the sweepings, and cart them away, should be like.
