FULTON'S PADDLE-BOAT
A Model of an Old Flat-Boat Worked
by Hand Cranks.

A Model of an Old FLAT Boat Worked
by Hand Cranks.
1t was said of the boy Ro bert Full
ton that he was what might be called
dull scholar, and once, when chided
by his teacher for his inattention to
his studies he replied that his head
was so full of original notions that
there was no place to store away the
contents of dusty books.
One OF the neighbors Of his father,
one Denter Grumpp, was very fond of
hshlng' and he had built for this pur-
pose fiat bottoined boat or scow, and
he used to avail himself of the labors
OF his son Christopher and his neigh
boris son Robert to aid him in his pur-
suit by getti ing them to pole the boat
over the waters of the Conestoga,
while he tish-poled the perch and bass
into the boat AS we'll may be imag-
ined this was not much amusement for
the boys but one of them put on his
thinking. cap as he pushed his way
along and, as usual pushing and
thinking won in the end. ;.
Hiring OF pole pushing Robert Full
ton concluded that he would go over
the hills and make his aunt visit of
. week or SO, and it was in the garrett
OF his aunt's house that he built a
model of Denter Grumpp's Aat-boat
20 which he planned aid arran ged a
pair OF paddle wheels on cross shaft
having on 1t hand cranks. Coming
pack home, he confded to his chum,
christopher, his invention. and, Sc
curing his aid they together rugged
up a paddle shaft with wheels and
cranks for the fiat boat of the elder
Grumpp. This was so arranged that
the whole m machinery could be lifted
off and be taken to a place of safety
while not in use.
1t was not long before the elder
Grumpp had, as many another since
has had a longing: to try his luck
again on the waters Of the Conestoga :
and he summoned the beforetime re-
luctant boys to help him out What
his surprise was we perhaps can i'm
agine as he looked back from the boat
and saw the two boys struggling down
the river bank with a. queer looking
conglomeration of iron and wood in
the shape OF cranks and wheels on
their shoulders, and just how the boys
chuckled together as they saw the
surprise In the staid old Dutchman's
face we can also imagine.
!, However, after suppressed giggling,
they hung the shaft in" it's place and
the wheels over the side, taking their
places at the cranks and then and
there started, the first paddle wheel
boat ever seen on, the now continent
OF America. Engineering Magazine
