Announcement was made Monday
that a monument will be unveiled
soon in the Engineering arch in mem-
ory of Joseph Baker Davis, '68, for 38
years a professor in the engineering
college and founder of the first camp
for practical instruction in surveying
which niow bears his name.
In addition to his work in the Uni-
versity, Professor Davis served 16
years as city engineer of Ann Arbor,
making surveys which the courts do
not question.
Friends Desire ilonunient
Since Professor Davis (lied in 1920,
many of his associates, former stu-
dents and other friends have expressed
the hope that a suitable monument
might be unveiled in his memory. A
committee from the Engineering so-
ciety was appointed, consisting ofj
Prof. Clarence T. Johnson of the en-j
gineering college, George M. Ames of
Grand Rapids, and George H. Fenkell
of Detroit. Carleton W. Angell, Uni-
versity sculptor, designed the plaque{
which was cast in Germany. It has
arrived in Ann Arbor and will bej
placed in the Engineering arch. It
will be unveiled within a few weeks.
Professor Davis was a native of I
New England,. being horn at Westport,E
Mass., July 31, 1845. Although his an-
cestors had been seamen, his atten-
tion was directed to other things. He
attended the grammar and the high
schools of New Bedford, Mass., and
when he made inquiries regarding
higher education, he learned that one
without means might obtain an educa-
tion at the University of Michigan. He
was enrolled in the University in 1864
and was graduated in 1868.
Helped Build Railroads
During the net two years, he en-
gaged in railway building in Michigan
and nearby states, but in 1870; he re-I
turned to the University as instructor{
in civil engineering. Professor Davis
bore the title of assistant professor of
civil engineering from 1872 to 1891
when hie was made professor of
geodesy and surveying. He established
the firs. surveying camp for students
in 1874. It. was located first at Whit-j
more lake, then at other places in the
state, finally being moved to its pres-
ent site on Douglas lake in 1903. I
x Professor Davis became city en-
gineer in Ann Arbor soon after his
appointment as assistant professor.
One of his services as city engineer,
was the keeping of the notes of prop-
Serty and city surveys.
He was made associate dean of en-
Sgineering in 1903, and held this office
until his retirement from the Univer-
sity in 1910. He then made his honeic
in Dexter until his (eath in 1920.
