He was an apt pupil in school until he left at the age of Is, convinced that 1t was up to him to get to earning money. He started in as messenger boy for the old Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph Co.,. manipulating Q key whenever the operator would let him practise. Soon he became an amounted to enough so that he could save the portion that was not given to his mother.
