Narrative

[1279-louise_burns.FTW]

Emerson Cogswell was an expert and ingenious goldsmith. Prior to the Revolution, King George III made a proclamation offering a very large reward to any person who would discover or invent a "perpetual motion." Mr. Cogswell became interested
and went to England on this business. Whether he thought he had actually made the discovery, or was expecting to make it, we are not told. Alas, his bright dreams of great wealth from the King came to a speedy end. He died soon after his
arrival in England.
