Abstract

"On March 10, throughout the United States, there were held celebrations of the fiftieth anniversary of Alexander Graham Bell's first message: 'Watson, come here, I want you,' on his completed telephone. Celebrations were also held in a number of Washington cities commemorating the first installations of their telephone systems. Notable among these was Bellingham celebrating the date of January 15, 1890, and Seattle that of March 7, 1883."
