  • History of the St. Andrew's Society of Detroit: 1849 to 2000
    History of the St. Andrew's Society of Detroit: 1849 to 2000 By Fred Dunbar Wessells The Founding "For the relief of the indigent and unfortunate of our Countrymen, and for the promotion of harmony and good feeling amongst ourselves, we the undersigned Scotchmen and Descendants of Scotchmen, with Benevolence for our motto, do unite ourselves into a Society and agree to abide by the following Constitution of the St. Andrew's Society of Detroit." With this preamble, written by Hugh Moffat, who would become President of the Society in 1856-57, the St. Andrew's Society of Detroit was formed by 35 men on November 30, 1849, at a meeting called by William Barclay, proprietor of Barclay & Carey, a produce merchant located at the foot of Randolph Street. [Mr. Barclay was born on May 24, 1808, in Ayrshire, Scotland, and resided at the time of the founding on the northeast corner of John R and Farrar streets.] A committee was assigned to write a Constitution and Bylaws, and at a second meeting held on December 16, 1849, in the Merchants Exchange Hotel, 18 members signed those documents, including Mr. Moffat, Mr. Barclay and James L. Lyell, who was elected the first President of the Society. Similar societies already had been founded in Philadelphia, Boston and New York, led by the great number of Scots who emigrated to the mid-Atlantic states. But in the 1800s, faced with oppression, religious intolerance and prospects of a better economy in the U.S., Scots continued to emigrate but now were moving into the midwest.

Alameda Corridor - Part One 06:54 The Alameda Corridor was completed in 2002. It is a rail connection between the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and the national railroad network.

(The satellite was not geo-stationary.) A TV broadcast was arranged between Europe and North America showing various sites as a demonstration. One site was a presidential news conference. In this news clip, President Kennedy acknowledges the broadcast. Eventually, electronic communication helped foster globalization. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_dFgieApL4 Telstar satellite launch and demonstration 02:22 The Telstar satellite - launched in the early 1960s - provided only brief intervals for transmission since it was not geo-stationary.
