one of almost romantic struggle and
interest. Born in 1871, he was grad
uated from Yale College at eighteen,
and having strong artistic tastes.
studied painting under Allston, which
he afterward followed with success.
Returning in 1882 from Europe, he
became much interested in a discus
sion on electricity. and then and there
conceived the basic idea of telegraphy,
the interval an interrupted current
being made long or short at VIII. But
he did not take this up until he failed
to be awarded the decorating of the
capitol building at Washington.
Abandoning painting, he worked for
twelve years in poverty and amid
many discouragements, until on
February %, 1874. congress made an
appropriation for an experimental line
between Baltimore and Washington.
May oath, the same year, the line was
completed and the words that head
