SUMMARY 70 REFERENCES 75 11 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION When Ward Carlton Mayborn was born October 10, 1879, the Civil War had been over for 14 years. The nation was experiencing the problems associated with healing the wounds of war while the age of the industrial revolution was dawning upon the nation. Thomas A. Edison in 1864 invented an automatic telegraph repeater, making possible the sending of mes­ sages over long distances (1, p. 587). In the early 1870s, less than 10 years before Mayborn's birth, a telegraph system was incorporated into the nation's fledgling railway system (1, p. 587). Edison started to work in his Menlo Park, New Jersey laboratory in 1876 (1, p. 587). It was not until Septem­ ber 4, 1882, when Mayborn was almost three years old, that New York City got its first electric street lights (2, p. 118) . In his book, The Rise of Industrial America, Page Smith detailed events taking place in the nation at the time of Mayborn's birth and during the next 20 years when Mayborn was receiving all the formal education he was to have and when he found himself, due to economic conditions of the time, looking for work.
