Kelvin Dock is situated a few minutes’ walk from the town, on the right bank of the Clyde. Soon the immense timber-yards were thronged with spectators; not a part of the quay, not a wall of the wharf, not a factory roof showed an unoccupied place; the river itself was covered with craft of all descriptions, and the heights of Govan, on the left bank, swarmed with spectators.
A Kelvin-dokk néhány percnyire fekszik a várostól, a Clyde jobbpartján; a kíváncsiskodók hamarosan ellepték hatalmas műhelyeit; sem a rakparton, sem a mólón, sem a raktárak tetején nem hagytak talpalatnyi üres helyet; a folyót is csónakok szelték át és a balparton, a goveni dombokon is nyüzsögtek a nézők.
