--- Treasurer Trivia Fact ---
In 1825, while painting a portrait in Washington, D.C., Samuel Morse received a letter informing
him that his wife was seriously ill. The next day, another letter arrived with devastating news;
she had died. Morse immediately abandoned his work and rushed home to New Haven.
By the time he arrived, his wife had already been buried. The slow pace of communication meant
he had missed her final moments and couldn’t even attend her funeral. The emotional toll of
this experience left a deep mark on him, fueling a desire to find a faster way to transmit
urgent messages over long distances.
This personal tragedy became the catalyst for Morse’s groundbreaking work in telegraphy.
Driven by grief and frustration, he developed a system of electrical signals that could be sent
quickly across wires, what we now know as Morse code. His invention revolutionized communication
and changed the world forever.
