1848 Obituary [2]
Mr. J. Ball’s career, as a Merchant, was foreign to the views of the Institution; but he was enabled to concur with its objects, in becoming the proprietor of the extensive zinc rolling mills, at the Wenlock Basin, and by his connexion with the exportation to Poland, &c., of large quantities of machinery, for the establishment of the works of his former partner, Mr. Steinkeller, at Warsaw.
