I would now suggest that it would be a most helpful step if individuals who favour this idea would lend their names to strengthen the appeal that will have to be made to some Public Institution for the use of a room, and if Societies and Journals would also express their agreement. Such a Memorial would be so personally suitable, in view of Mr. Bell\u2019s many and long continued services, and so valuable to the cause of humane progress in general, that it is difficult to see how any objection could be made to it: the sole question is whether the initial difficulties can be overcome.

Bordeaux, whose growth was due to its port activity and which was a cornerstone of trade with all of the French colonies of that time, was a dynamic and very lively city, but it soon began to seem small for the company: since a large portion of the orders for restaurants and stores came from the Paris area, it was decided to open a warehouse in Levallois-Pernet. An army of salespeople and delivery personnel travelled the length and breadth of France, and the company opened a branch office also in San Sebasti\u00e1n, Spain.
