Excerpt from Proceedings of the Convention of Iron and Steel Manufacturers and Iron Ore Producers, at Pittsburgh, Tuesday, May 6, 1879 The Association thus organized continued in active existence until 1859, having a life of four years, during which time much valuable work was done by it. The Iron Manufacturers' Guide to the Iron Works and Iron Ore Mines of the United States, com piled by the secretary, Professor J. P. Lesley, was a work of which the American iron trade stood in great need and of which it had and still has just reason to be proud. It contained about eight hundred printed pages, and was published in 1859, but the Ameri can Iron Association appears to have died in giving it birth, as I find no record of any work being done by it after the annual meeting held on March l6th of that year. Thenceforward, until 1864, the iron and steel manufacturers of the country appear to have been without a national organization for any purpose.
