interview by its Washington correspond
ent with Junius Linch Clemons, clerk of
the River and HGrbor Committee OF the

at Randolph, Macon College, Va. He
communicated his discovery to a Mr..
Page, who was in the patent office and
who had become quite eminent as
an electrician. Mr.. Page did not
answer the letter. and eleven years after

sociated Mr.. Morse aud Amos Kendall
with him. The company applied to Con.
gress for aid TO develop the discovery, and
the world knows the result. Mr.. Glenn

opment. He concludes the interview as
follows: 81 would not pluck single leaf
from the laurel that circled Mr.. Morse's
brow or drop a word that would reflect
upon his memory" The letter is pub
