 note = {P(論文), Edmund Morel was the first Engineer-in-chief of the Imperial Railways of Japan. He arrived at Yokohama on 9^th April, 1870 to begin survey and construction work for the railway. At the same time he made proposals to the Meiji Government to facilitate more effective and faster national development. The proposals concerned the Department of Public Works, the Imperial College of Engineering, and use of domestic productions. He gained respect within Japan because of the propositions he made as well as his professional contribution. Unfortunately he died on 5^th November, 1871. He was unable to attend the Opening Ceremony of the Imperial Railway on 14^th October, 1872. Even worse his wife, Harriet passed away just 12 hours after his death. This tragedy caused shock and grief for the Japanese Government and foreign resident community. In this paper, I describe Morel's situation at the end of his life using the materials extant in Japan and Britain. These show the great appreciation for his accomplishments in Meiji Japan, and why Morel is called as "the Father of Japanese Railways".},
