The first public line by Morse in 1848 ran along the Baltimore and Ohio line, the nation’s first railroad, and much of the 2,000,000 miles of telegraph wires still follow rail routes. Western Union reports contracts with more than 850 railroad companies.

The Man Is the Master staged at the duke of York's house
Samuel Pepys records attending a new play The Man Is the Master at the duke of York's house. He notes the place was crowded before one o'clock and the king sat nearby so he could not turn his back. Much of the laughter came from inferior entertainments such as sack posset and clowns. Prologue and epilogue were weak while the ballet style performance by Barris and another performer stood out. Pepys also mentions his wife wearing a fine lower tabby suite bought earlier.
