Our History Begins Before We Are Born.

From A Very Early Period Of My Life I Have Derived The Highest Enjoyment From Listening To Music, Especially To Melody, Which Is To Me The Most Pleasing Form Of Composition.

In Order To Keep Pace With The Influx Of Work I Had To Take On Fresh Hands.

In 1854 I Took Out A Patent For Puddling Iron By Means Of Steam.

My Father Was Always Anxious To Give Pleasure To His Children. Accordingly, He Took Me One Day, As A Special Treat, To The Top Of The Grand Old Tower, To See The Chimes Played.

Our History Begins Before We Are Born. We Represent The Hereditary Influences Of Our Race, And Our Ancestors Virtually Live In Us.
