F During a by-election in Devon- }shire Dickens was up against the Times' hang the expense service and lmade several journeys between Exe- 'ter and London, a distance of some 170 miles. On one occasion when they were approaching Honiton, 'about 16 miles on the way, Denison of the Times, who was more tami. liar than Dickens with the country and the way of innkeepers, told his postboy to run into the Golden Lion yard by the back way, knowing that a pair of horses would be ready harnessed in the yard, with the post- boy waiting for a fob. "At the 'reeond"statre the expenses amounted to 2200; but the unprecedented achievement created a great sensation throughout the country. The Journey from Glasgow to London - 400 miles - was per- formed at: the rate of 15 miles an hour. The result was that the speech of Lord Durham appeared in the Times at full length a day before it otherwise could have done. Thei expenses amounted to 2200; but the! unprecedented achievement created Referring to an important speech by Lord Durham at: Glasgow in 1884, it is recorded the Times sent down to Glasgow two of its best parliamentary reporters; and m or der at the same time, to do all that could be done to get the report of Lord Durham's speech brought as speedily as possible to the Times office, relays of poszmen and horree --there being ro railways at the time - were shalom-1 at Conv'n- ient distances between Glasgow and London. Its reporters at home and abroad relied on a sort of "pony expresst' system, being told to spare no ex- ”use either as to the number or quality of the horses. . M. Thomas Times-Journal The Times has been recalling event: of 100 years ago, when Charles Dickens was a reporter in London. When readers of the Times- Journal realize that news of an int-, portant event on the other side of the ocean is published within a few "eeondg of happening, with an cet- tended report appearing within half an hour or so, it is interesting to learn that' the great London daily prided itself on the promptitude of its reports before the days of the telegraph, trains, steam printing, typewriters or the telephone.
