EXTRAIT

Jean-Baptiste Pipon was born in Rhone on 20 November 1754 and at the beginning of the nineteenth century he founded an import-export business in Mauritius; he married Marie Jeanne Mailliard in 1798 at Port Louis, Mauritius, they had 5 sons and 1 daughter, and two of their sons, Charles Emile and Pierre Aristide were alive in 1855 at the time of both letters. Jean-Baptiste died in Port Louis on 15 August 1825 at the age of 70. In 1817 Joachim Henri Adam (1793-1856) arrived in Mauritius from Rouen to take up work on a sugar estate; in 1825 he married Jean-Baptiste’s daughter, Marie Jeanne Estelle and joined the Pipon business thereafter. Henri Adam played a prominent part in the island campaign for an indemnity to owners of slaves emancipated under the Abolition Act of 1832. The firm, which for more than a century was one of the island’s three most important firms of merchants and commission agents, traded successively under the names of F. Barbe and Adam (1829-1837); Henry Adam & Co (1837-1848); Pipon Bell & Co (1848-1863); Pipon Adam & Co (1863-1897); Adam & Co (1897-1945); and Adam & Co Ltd (1945-1969).

EXTRAIT

The growth of the City of Calcutta is linked to the growth of the Port of Calcutta. I should say it was just the other way round. The Port of Calcutta had always lagged behind the economic demands that propelled the growth of the city. Take for example, the situation as of 1869. The hinterland of Calcutta had before then opened up for coal mining. tea plantations. production of jute as a cash crop and railroads. The postal and telegraph services were functioning to facilitate speedy decision making by the merchants. The Managing Agents had come to operate the jute textile industries that were springing up along the bank of the Bhagirathi (i.e., the Hooghly) River. Raw jute came from eastern Bengal in country boats or on flats pulled by steamers and was unloaded at the individual jetties constructed by these mills without the help of the Port of Calcutta. The same was happening with tea from northeast unloaded at the Armenian jetty constructed by the teaexporters. In addition, industrial revolution in England promoted exports of cotton textiles and other manufactures to Assam, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Bengal through the Port of Calcutta. In fact, there was then no institution called the Port of Calcutta. Only the nucleus of the future Port of Calcutta existed under the name of Marine Establishment that was created by the East India Company as late as 1758. By then, the Marine Establishment had a few jetties, a wharf for berthing of cargo carrying vessels, a marine yard at Kidderpore and a dry dock at Bankshall Ghat. The proposal for a wet dock was being considered. In 1869, the Suez Canal was opened up, which shortened the distance between England and India by 6500 kms. This canal gave an impetus to the use of steam vessels. The available infrastructure with the Marine Establishment proved hopelessly inadequate. The trading interests considered the Marine Establishment itself as an improper institution to carry out operational improvements and expansion of terminal facilities on the Bhagirathi River.
