Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gas, Light and Coke Company: An Account of the Progress of the Company From Its Incorporation by Royal Charter in the Year 1912 to the Present Time, 1812-1912 It is probable that the ordinary man of business, absorbed in the daily routine of his special calling, seldom spares a moment for reflection on the chance beginnings of institutions on whose aid he now depends for his very existence. They have become a part of his world as familiar and unquestioned as the suns diurnal round, with the cry of the newsboy at dusk and the milkman in the morning. The seventeenth-century Lloyd, who set up his coffee-house as a resort for seafaring gossips, is no more than a myth in the modern shipman's liturgy; and travellers by the night mail from London to Edinburgh, intent on errands of pleasure or of gain, pull the black lamp-shade over the flickering flame and settle themselves as cosily as may be in the carriage corner, without giving a moment's thought to the long labour of Stephenson in the dawn of the century gone by. Yet neither Lloyd's nor the modern railway sprang full-armed from the inventive brain: these institutions have slowly evolved to the needs of the time, social, political, industrial, which, step by step, induced their development. The steamship and the steam-driven locomotive, again, are dependent for their utility on the supply of coal: without their power of propulsion they are worth no more than their weight as scrap-iron. It is, indeed, hardly too much to say that neither one nor the other could have been invented elsewhere than in our own land, where the delvers have been busy since the time when Dan Chaucer's nimble pen "moved over bills of lading."
