Journal Of The Society Of Telegraph Engineers Vol Iv V PDF Download

Excerpt from Journal of the Society of Telegraph Engineers, Vol. 4: Including Original Communications on Telegraphy and Electrical Science; 1875 Gentlemen, On assuming the Chair as President of the Society of Telegraph Engineers I desire to return you my thanks for the confidence you have shown and the honour you have done me in placing me in so responsible a position. Although I shall spare no effort to uphold the interests and dignity of the Society and to increase its utility, and although I shall fulfil these duties as a labour of love, I am conscious that I shall have to ask your continued forbearance and indulgence for deficiencies. My task however will be but a light one compared with that which devolved on my predecessors in this chair. They had to create and establish the Society and to perfect its organisation; and, thanks to their wise and skilful guidance and to the liberal assistance of the Institution of Civil Engineers, we are able to meet in this magnificent room this evening some 600 members strong, and to chronicle nothing but prosperity and progress.
