Hogg's Secret Code for Letters and Telegrams , ' or any Memoranda requiring Perfect Secrecy . London : Hogg and Co . This seems an ingenious , simple , and yet perfect system of secret communication , -winch may be used either in letters or telegrams . Is is so easy o system that we were able to completely master it and understand its use
in five minutes . Tbe author apologises to the intelligent reader for an addenda which is inserted to more fully explain tbe working of tbe code , and states that such , explanation is not intended for Ms use . The author states that in sending telegrams by Ms code , five letters are charged as one word . This will not greatly increase the charge , and we bave no doubt that where secrecy is desired the system will come into extensive use .
