Today in History

On March 10, 1876...

Alexander Graham Bell recorded in his lab notebook that he successfully tested his new experiment, the telephone. He called his assistant, Thomas Watson, and said, "Mr. Watson — come here — I want to see you." That day, he also wrote a letter to his father about his success, and speculated that "the day is coming when telegraph wires will be laid on to houses just like water and gas — and friends converse with each other without leaving home."
