Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAC-SAR
SALT, SIR TITUS, BART .(18o31876),
English
  manufacturer, was born on the loth of September 1803, at Morley, Yorkshire. In 182o he was apprenticed to learn wool-stapling at Bradford, and his father, having followed him there and started in that business, took him into partnership in 1824. His success in introducing the coarse
Russian
  wool (donskoi) into
English
  worsted manufacture, due to
special
  machinery of his own devising, gave his firm a
great
  impetus. In 1836 he solved the difficulties-

of working alpaca (q.v.) wool, created an enormous industry in the production of the
staple
  goods for which that name was retained, and became one of the richest manufacturers in Brad-ford. In 1853 he opened, a few miles out of the city on the Aire, the extensive works and model manufacturing town of Saltaire. From 18591861
Salt
  was M. P. for Bradford, of which city he had been
mayor
  in 1848, and in 1869 he was created a
baronet
 . He died on the loth of September 1876, and was accorded a public funeral. After his death his many benevolent institutions at Saltaire, at first continued by his widow, were transferred to a trust.
