Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prize Essay on Canals and Canal Conveyance: For Which a Premium of 100 Was Awarded by the Canal Association "In compliance with the instructions of the last Annual Meeting, the Committee have carefully examined the Essays which were sent in, in competition for the Prize, and are prepared to report the result. Before, however, they state the conclusion at which they have arrived, it may be useful to explain the circumstances which led to the offering a Prize, and the steps which were taken to carry out the plan. "At the 'Canal Companies' Meetings' in 1844-5 which resulted in carrying the Canal Companies' Tolls Act, 8 and 9 Victoria, c. 28, and the Canal Carriers' Act, 8 and 9 Victoria, c. 42, - a scheme was proposed for offering a series of Annual Premiums for Improvements in Canal Works and Management; and it was suggested that the first Prize should be for an Essay on the best method of carrying out the proposed plan, as well as on the general subject of Canal and their management. "Considerable sums were promised by some of the leading Canals, but unhappily from the want of union, sufficient encouragement was not secured to enable the Committee to carry the scheme into effect. Soon after the formation of the present Association the idea was revived, and the funds at the disposal of the Committee appearing adequate, it was resolved to carry out that part of the original scheme which related to an Essay. "Accordingly in the month of July last, the following Advertisement was inserted in The Times: - "'Canal Association. - Prize Essay on Canals. - A Premium of 100 will be given by the Committee of the Canal Association to the Author of the Best Essay on the Present Condition and Future Prospects of Canals and Canal Conveyance, with suggestions as to the Points to which attention, with a view to Improvement, should be principally directed. "'The Essay must be sent in on or before the Thirty-first December, 1856, to the Honorary Secretary, from whom further particulars may be had on application. "'Thomas Wilson, Hon. Sec.
