[Amsterdam, 1823]. Original black wrappers. 7 pp. l Obituary of Jan Hendrik van Swinden [Jean Henri van Swinden 1746-1823] He was a Dutch mathematician and physicist who taught in Franeker and Amsterdam.

In 1798 he led a commission to report on the state of the health of the inhabitants of Amsterdam, based on the results of the census. He was part of an international commission to determine the length of the meter, as a first step to introducing the metric in the Netherlands. His international good name led him to be appointed as representative during the French occupation.
