This is a report of the public meeting held on May 17, 1853, at the London Tavern to discuss the formation of the Mercantile and Maritime College in the City of London. With the Earl of Harrowby in the chair, the meeting addressed the need for a dedicated institution to educate individuals in the skills necessary for maritime commerce and related fields. This document offers insights into the concerns and aspirations of London’s citizens involved in maritime activities during the mid-19th century. It sheds light on the importance of maritime trade to the city’s economy and the perceived need for specialized education to support its continued success. The report provides a valuable historical record of the early efforts to establish a maritime college in London, highlighting the key figures and motivations behind this initiative.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
