Throughout his youth he studied art, and after graduating from Yale University he went on to London in 1811 where his early artistic endeavors met 5 with acclaim. In London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Arts Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits of the Marquis 10 de Lafayette today are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library. In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well-known today for his work developing the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was 20 successfully transmitted.

Throughout his youth he studied art, and after graduating from Yale University he went on to London in 1811 where his early artistic endeavors met 5 with acclaim. In London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Arts Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits of the Marquis 10 de Lafayette today are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library. In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well-known today for his work developing the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was 20 successfully transmitted.

| 14. | Samuel Morse accomplished something that is rarely accomplished: he achieved fame and success in two widely differing areas. Throughout his youth he studied art, and after graduating from Yale University he went on to London in 1811 where his early artistic endeavors met 5 with acclaim. In London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Arts Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits of the Marquis 10 de Lafayette today are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library. In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well-known today for his work developing the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was 20 successfully transmitted.

| 12. | Samuel Morse accomplished something that is rarely accomplished: he achieved fame and success in two widely differing areas. Throughout his youth he studied art, and after graduating from Yale University he went on to London in 1811 where his early artistic endeavors met 5 with acclaim. In London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Arts Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits of the Marquis 10 de Lafayette today are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library. In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well-known today for his work developing the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was 20 successfully transmitted.

In London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Arts Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits of the Marquis 10 de Lafayette today are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library. In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well-known today for his work developing the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was 20 successfully transmitted.

He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project. With these funds, Morse hung a telegraph line from Washington, D.C. to Baltimore, and on May 24, 1844, a message in the dots and dashes of Morse Code was 20 successfully transmitted.

| 15. | Samuel Morse accomplished something that is rarely accomplished: he achieved fame and success in two widely differing areas. Throughout his youth he studied art, and after graduating from Yale University he went on to London in 1811 where his early artistic endeavors met 5 with acclaim. In London he was awarded the gold medal of the Adelphi Arts Society for a clay figure of Hercules, and his paintings The Dying Hercules and The Judgement of Jupiter were selected for exhibit by the Royal Academy. Later in life, after returning to America, Morse became known for his portraits. His portraits of the Marquis 10 de Lafayette today are on exhibit in the New York City Hall and the New York Public Library. In addition to his artistic accomplishments, Morse is also well-known today for his work developing the telegraph and what is known as Morse Code. He first had the idea of trying to develop the telegraph in 1832, on board a ship returning to America 15 from Europe. It took eleven long years of ridicule by his associates, disinterest by the public, and a shortage of funds before Congress finally allocated $30,000 to Morse for his project.
