Excerpt from Symons's Meteorological Magazine, 1896, Vol. 31

Lastly, I need hardly say, that its future depends very much upon its readers, if they will send me prompt and full information of any unusual occurrence in their neighbour hood, and if they will (if they think it good) recommend it to their friends, the two essentials of high quality and a paying circulation may be obtained, and so I may be able to enlarge it, though my maxim always is, say everything in as few words as possible.

My readers did help me, and so we have gone on these thirty years, and though of course many have passed away, I see that nine of the writers in the first number (and also the printer) are with us still. As to how the craft has been steered it is not for me to say, but of one thing I am very proud, viz., that (perhaps because it is so small) the Meteorological Magazine is not merely taken in, but it is read. I try hard to avoid mistakes, but whenever a misstatement occurs, I hear of it, and no Editor could receive a higher compliment.
