at this late day can be Of no public
utility only as it may contribute to
the truth Of history. The science Of

~ginnings have been almost entirely
forgotten.

Of z | commenced my college course

While attending the lectures Of
Professor Landon 6. Garland in the

interested in the science Of electricity
or Of what little OF It - was then

Franklin had with MS kite and key

Of the thundercloud with that pro
