In 1814, in Hartford, Connecticut, the Rev. Thomas H. Gallaudet met Alice Cogswell, a young deaf girl. He was home from the seminary and was watching his brothers and sisters play with some other children. He noticed that one little girl was not participating and asked his brothers about her. He learned that she was deaf. He was fascinated with Alice and tried to communicate with her.
