Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Editors, Reporters, and Printers: During the Last Sixty Years T is now several years since some of my friends of the Fourth Estate pressed upon me to commit to paper my Reminiscences of Printers and Printing in Glasgow. I then respectfully declined their request. Since that time I have again and again been urged by them to put on record these memories, but could not see my way to comply with their wishes. These continued solicitations, combined with the fact that recently I was waited upon by deputations from the Glasgow Branch of the British Typographia to give a Lecture on the above subject, led me to consider the matter more favourably. As this branch had done its first year's work well, and was anxious to do still better the second year, I felt it both my duty and privilege to acquiesce, and encourage this worthy effort for the improvement of the rising genera tion of compositors and printers in Glasgow; and also to stimulate the endeavour being made to sustain the credit of our city by training skilled journeymen able to fill with honour any position in composing or machine room.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Editors, Reporters, and Printers: During the Last Sixty Years Sixty years ago the Glasgow Herald was the most popular newspaper in Glasgow, and still continues to be so. It was originally started in 1782, under the title of the Advertiser, and was issued once a week, on Mondays; it became a bi-weekly in 1792, and was issued on Mondays and Fridays at the price of sevenpence per copy. In 1802 it changed its name to that of Herald and Advertiser; a few years later it dropped the title of Advertiser and became known as the Glasgow Herald, and was sold at fourpence halfpenny. On the repeal of the stamp duty in 1855 it became a tri-weekly, and was published at threepence per copy, and in 1859 it became a daily paper, published at one penny. Its centenary was held on 27th January, 1882. The Weekly Herald was commenced in 1864. When I went to the printing business, the Herald's premises were situated at the north-west corner of Bell Street and Candleriggs, rather an unpretentious newspaper office, but not so humble as was its first one in the Saltmarket, the rent of which was £5 per annum! At that time its editor was Mr Samuel Hunter. He was well liked as an editor. He never was bumptious, kept his mind in moderation, was very sagacious, and balanced his political creed so well that in the bi-weekly issues of his paper he would be pleasing Toryism or Whigism.
