A letter from Robert Stephenson to Captain Constantine Moorsom dated 5th May 1849. In the letter, Stephenson writes that he hopes to attend Board meeting but has little to add. "I am doing everything in my power to press forward the preparations for floating" (the tubes of Britannia Bridge) but is "exceedingly anxious". Hydraulic presses are "progressing very rapidly".
