Representative Sperry of Connecticut
Is probably the last survivor of the
gentlemen who were closely associated
In the construction of the famous Mon
itor that fought with the Merrimac in
Hampton Roads. The three builders
of the Yankee cheese box" were John
Ericsson, a Swedc. known the world
over as the inventor: Cornelius $.
Bushnell OF New Haven, and John A,
Groiswold of Troy, n, Y. the last two
being Interested with Mr.. Ericsson az
part owners, Mr., Bushnell and Mr..
Sperry were close friends and the lat
ter went on Mr.. Bushnell's bond for
100000. II should be borne In mind
what Is not generally known by stu
dents OF American hstory-that the
Monitor was owned by private parties.
and not by the government. when she
fought the historic battle. The three
gentlemen named were authorized by
the government to build the Monitor,
and II she We're able to do what was
promised, the government had agreed
to purchase her. There was a great
deal of skeptlcism about the craft hut
the government advanced some money
for her constructor and for that reason
the builders We're required to give bond
for the return of the money IL the boat
was n failure.
Mr.. Sperry remembers wildly tine day
of the battle. for the failure OF the
Monitor meant more TO him thnn dis,
aster to the Federals. II would have
taken every dollar OF his property to
satisfy the government bond.-Wash-
