Not just a one-trick pony. S FB Morse keeping train travellers cinder-free since 1901!
"Let us guard against the insidious encroachments of innovation, that evil and beguiling spirit which is now stalking to and fro through the earth seeking whom he may destroy. --Jedidiah Morse, 1803.
Ouch, Samuel Morse's dad was tough.

Oh, the influence of a good teacher. Jeremiah Day was one of Morse's favorites. Morse writes to his parents:
New Haven, 1809: Mr. Day's lectures are very interesting...they are upon electricity; he has given us some very fine experiments, the whole class taking hold of hands form the circuit of communication and we all receive the shock apparently at the same moment. I never took an electric shock before. It felt as if some person had struck me a slight blow across the arms. . . . I think with pleasure that two thirds of this term only remain. --Samuel F.B. Morse
Love the last line. So like a college student.
portrait of Yale University President Jeremiah Day by Samuel FB Morse. oil on canvas, 50 x 40, Yale University Art Gallery, Gift of the class of 1823.
Telegraph Wire, US 3316 A
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 3,316, dated October 25, 1843.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL F. B. MORSE, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new Method of Introducing Wire into Metallic Pipe; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description.
The nature of my invention consists in substituting a hollow mandrel for the solid mandrel used in making metallic pipe, which hollow mandrel I use for the purpose of introducing with facility wires of considerable lengths Within said pipe. I introduce the wires through the hollow mandrel in two ways, to wit: first, when the pipe is made by rolling or pressing a metallic ingot upon the mandrel, the ingot being cold or heated to a temperature below 300 of Fahrenheits thermometer, the Wire or wires, coated with cotton or other substance liable to injury by a greater degree of heat, are directly introduced through the hollow mandrel and laid within the pipe as it is formed and passes ofi'from the mandrel; second, when the pipe is made from metal above the temperature of 300 of Fahrenheits thermometer, or at a heat which would injure the coating of the wires, a single wire or metallic cord or chain is first introduced through the said hollow mandrel, and, being drawn within the pipe in the same manner as above described, furnishes the means, by attaching other wire or wires to one end of it, of drawing them within the pipe.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The method of introducing wires in hollow pipes while making the same, by introducing the wires through a hollow mandrel on which the pipe is made, substantially as herein described.

Mr. Hubbard Tweets!
Now you can stay connected with Mr. Hubbard on twitter @hubbardsalon! Many posts will look the same as tumblr, but be sure there will be a few added surprises along the way.
I can't help think that Mr. Hubbard would like the idea of social media- it's a gathering place for like minded friends, it facilitates the dispersion of new and old ideas and cultivates a passion for new ideas.
Stay Curious, Cazenovia.

Samuel and Family Hopes the Mother's Day Weekend was Sweet

This ink drawing is a "holograph"- a document written entirely by the hand of the person whose signature it bears. With words and images all supplied by the same pen, holographs represented a particular claim to authenticity. These were sought after in the first half of the 19th century by collectors who would assemble them into albums. This holograph is likely to have come into the Walters' collection from that of another Baltimore collector, Robert Gilmor. In this holograph by Morse, the poem, of the artist's own composition, dominates the page. The knight at the head of the poem gestures toward the distant future of 1965, where Morse imagines a reader so remote in time as to have neither form nor gender. His lofty tone and decorous call to virtue evokes sentiments similar to West's dedicatory inscription to the "youths of the United States of America" in another holograph of the almost the same date (WAM 37.1577).

A Miniature Look at Finley's Father

on reverse: the geography lesson
When Samuel F.B. Morse was a student at Yale he was nicknamed Geography; his father's was an influential and widely-read author of geography texts.
from Yale University Art Gallery: American Portrait and Mourning Miniatures: Rev. Morse believed the study of geography would unite a diverse citizenry and encourage Americans to discard feelings of inferiority to Europe. The tiny scene on the portrait's reverse portrays a geographer lecturing to a group of rapt young ladies. In surrounding the geographer with women, Hancock was positioning Morse in one of the most hotly debated issues in the early republic—women's education. Morse's dedication to instructing women in geography reflected a growing consensus that female literacy in certain prescribed fields would serve American nationalism by preparing women to educate the new generation of citizens. The mid-1790s was a time of euphoria not only in Morse's professional life, but also in his personal one. Jedidiah and Elizabeth Morse, whose son Samuel—inventor of the telegraph—had been born in 1791, celebrated the birth of children Sidney Edwards in 1794 and Richard in 1795. yale university

What would Mr. Hubbard think about Gif's? We think he'd like this one. Maybe someone can make one for him? Let us know if you want to help. The Cazenovia Public Library has lots of great photos to choose from!
Finley Wants to be an Artist. Dad Not Convinced.
Finley writes home: July 22, 1810
I am now released from college and am attending to painting…
As to my choice of a profession, I still think that I was made for a painter, and I would be obliged to you to make such arrangement with Mr. Allston for my studying with him as you shall think expedient. I should desire to study with him during the winter, and, as he expects to return to England in the spring, I should admire to be able to go with him.
Father Morse replies: July 26, 1810
DEAR Finley,—I received your letter of the 22d to-day by mail. On the subject of your future pursuits we will converse when I see you and when you get home. It will be best for you to form no plans. Your mama and I have been thinking and planning for you. I shall disclose to you our plan when I see you. Till then, suspend your mind...
Your affectionate father, J. Morse

This miniature was painted while Morse was a student at Yale.
Stay tuned as Dad will change his tune in a very generous way.
On occasion Mr. Hubbard will leave the salon topic at hand to explore the thoughts and wisdom of readers and libraries around the world.
thought we'd start with this as so many of us can relate to this situation.
Meet the Morse Family
Samuel paints early watercolor of his family
The Morse Family by Samuel F. B. Morse (1791-1872)
Watercolor on paper, circa 1810 National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.
Meet the Morse Family: Samuel's father, Rev. Jedidiah Morse ( 1761 – 1826), is shown at the center of the scene possibly lecturing on geography.The elder Morse was a Calvinist minister and a noted geographer, earning the moniker 'Father of American Geography' in textbooks.The setting includes a prominently displayed terrestrial globe and an opened book (probably meant to be one of J. Morse's own), opened to show an extended diagram or map. Sidney Edwards (1794 - 1871) and Richard Cary Morse (1795-1868) stand to their father's left, while Samuel Morse leans forward on his right, intent on his father's words and gestures. Elizabeth Breese Morse (1766 - 1828) also listens closely, her sewing scissors and other implements shown on the table. The family was living in Charlestown, Massachusetts; Morse had just finished his studies at Yale. This is reportedly Morse's first attempt at a group portrait. It is described as unfinished.
