He was then honorably discharged. His daily letters, written to comfort his wife, then prevented by illness from visiting him, breathe the most cheerful, generous, and Christian temper. In a letter to Mrs. Goodyear, written just after he had been set free from prison, he says: "Sickness and sorrow, like health and joy, are brief at the longest. God hath set the one over against the other. I write you from the snug little parlor at the 'Pavilion, ' where hangs the engraving of the convalescent soldier from Waterloo, his wife and baby by his side, and on the other side of the room the prisoner chiseling the image of Christ on the prison wall with a nail. How one would like to know that man! There was good for others, and we may hope for him from this suffering. This brings my mind to reflect upon the occurrences of the past month. I cannot but believe they were ordered for some special purpose for my good, or for that of my family, even in this life, and that it will be explained here. Satan was once let loose in this way upon poor Job; not that I presume to compare myself with that good man. Yet, scrutinizing my conduct as closely as I can, I cannot censure myself for, or really...

Download or read book History of the Electric Automobile written by Ernest Henry Wakefield and published by SAE International. This book was released on 1993-08-01 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of the Electric Automobile covers the evolution from the first electric vehicles of the 1880s to the advances of today. Beginning with early electric vehicle development in England, France, and the United States, this book provides an in-depth look at the so-called "golden age of electric vehicles" (1895-1905), demonstrating the technological improvements and business risks of this era. This history also explores the "dead period" of the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, and the subsequent re-birth of interest in electric vehicles in the early 1960s. Events which have impacted the development of electric cars since then -- most notably the Electric Vehicle Act of 1976 -- are also examined. The book also features an appendix section containing such information as a name table of American electric cars, the Electric Vehicle Act of 1976, "nostalgia", and more. A glossary and index are also included. "For more than a century, nearly all seers who have predicted the role of electric vehicles in personal transportation have been wrong. This book records what actually happened, both within America and internationally." - Ernest H. Wakefield
