The Tradition And History of Paper Making The Tradition And History of Paper Making IT would be difficult to single out among the diversified objects of human investigation," wrote John Murray in his remarks on " Modern Paper " (published in 1829), "a question more curious or interesting than the medium which bears the symbols that register the circumstances and events of past ages. . . . It is through such wonderful media that we are introduced into the multitudinous throng of a world's tenantry, and from their inscription learn what they thought, and said and did. . . . In deciphering these transcriptions of ideas and memorials of humanity we virtually converse with minds long since numbered with those who people the world of spirits; and even the mummy from his cerements in his sycamore coffin, recovered from the vaults of eternal pyramids, talks with us by virtue of the roll of papyrus which he holds in his hand."
