Morse's telegraph
Morse's writing telegraph first became known in Germany through a Mr. Robinson who, in the year 1847, gave exhibitions with it in Hamburg. The simplicity of Morse's apparatus, the relative facility of acquiring the alphabet, have in a short time ousted all dial and letterprinting apparatus. Georg Halske and Werner Siemens at once perceived this superiority of the Morse telegraph, resting on manual dexterity, and made it their task therefore to improve and perfect the system as far as possible mechanically. The first Morse relief writer by the Siemens & Halske was built in 1849.
