What is recorded here
Maxwell Simpson plaque is a memorial in County Cork, Ireland. Perhaps his breath still ghosts the chamber walls where he forced carbon and hydrogen into succinic acid. Maybe the plaque holds the only address left from the man who bent nature to his will. Imagine him at the window, watching rain strip the chamber clean while his equations ran beneath the stones.
MAXWELL SIMPSON 1815-1892 Prof. of chemistry Queens College (now U.C.C.). First chemist to synthetise succinic acid. He live here 1870-1892.
