Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ...for the discharge of the varied and important duties pertaining to his high position. For our future chief magistrate, it is with feelings of the greatest satisfaction and pleasure that I propose that the high honour and distinction of Lord Provost of our city be conferred on my muchesteemed friend and colleague Bailie Blackie, than whom, I am certain, there could not be found one better qualified and more worthy to fulfil the duties and maintain the dignity of the office, feeling assured that the honour and dignity of this chair will not suffer in his hands, but, on the contrary, receive additional grace and lustre from his occupancy. Mr. James Lumsden then said--Bailie Grant, I rise with very great pleasure to second the nomination you have just made. I feel satisfied that this Council, in electing Bailie Blackie to the high and honourable position of Lord Provost of the city of Glasgow, will elect a gentleman who is not only fitted, but able and willing, to discharge the duties of that office in a way becoming the chief magistracy of so important a city as this. The Council has had already a sufficient earnest of his capability for managing public affairs, and his anxiety for the interests of all. I can only say that, associated with Bailie Blackie as I have been in some other matters, I have found him invariably most courteous and gentlemanly in his behaviour, kind and affectionate to all who came in contact with him, and most anxious and earnest in the discharge of his duties. I think it would ill become me to say anything more on this occasion, and I beg simply to second the nomination of Bailie Blackie.

Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of the Hon. The Lord Provosts of Glasgow: With Appendix Glasgow is no doubt charged, not without reason, with having a murky and in salubrious atmosphere. That is certainly a drawback which cannot in the nature of things be altogether avoided, but notwithstanding, Glasgow cannot justly be regarded as an unhealthy city. Indeed, with a due degree of care on the part of individuals and families, as fair a preportion of health and longevity may now be attained in Glasgow as in any other manufacturing town in the kingdom. That the inhabitants are not all of the well-doing, care-taking class, there is unhappily over-abundant proof in the facts that somewhere about policemen are required to keep watch and ward over life and property while that institution so essential to civilization, the the jail, covers acres, and although built as high as the Egyptian Pyramids the turnkey still finds himself hampered for room. These few facts, good and bad will, so far, serve to show the different objects and interests that require to be attended to in the government of such a city as Glasgow. At the same time it may with confidence be said that the state of the city generally gives undoubted evidence of the high degree of wisdom and ability with which it has hitherto been governed. Such being the case it must be the desire of all intelligent citizens that there should be some available record of the men who have from time to time been chosen to bear rule in the city, and who have given such abundant proof of their fitness for the duties their responsible position imposed on them.
