Prof. Elisha Gray was once black

the Buckeye state to prove that. But
neither the forge and chestnut tree nor
the pIaner and hammer had the charm
for him that chemicals aud wire rigging
had, His crude workshop laboratory,
fitted up by himself and avoided by the
honest Ohio community on account OF
the pungent smells Of acids and aikalis,
was his palace There he spent the
hours which were not taken up with
sleeping and growing and helping the

temporary. This rendered sleep almost
impossible, at times, aud finally caused
his mind to weaken. Tho failure OF the
glass works at Anderson, Ind, in which

mental in the company locating there,
preyed upon his mind. A friend Gays

experienced intense mental suffering
because Of go many OF the stockholders
giving up good Jobs, investing their
money in the Anderson enterprise and
losing this and leaving them without
work, because others had lost their
money. bebause he felt that ho was, to

him on account OF this failure.
