Basic Biographical Details

Name: Campbell Douglas & Paterson
Designation:  
Born: Early 1903
Died: 1910(?)
Bio Notes: Around 1901 Campbell Douglas dissolved his partnership with Alexander Morrison. The problem is said to have been Morrison's addiction to drink. But by that date Douglas was, at seventy-three, too old to carry on the practice alone and he merged it with that of Alexander Nisbet Paterson in early 1903. He took little active interest in the design side of the practice and a bad recurrence of a previous illness - presumably that of 1887-88 - caused him to retire to Edinburgh in 1906, although Paterson continued the practice under the same name until at least 1910.
