Fitch, John - 1874

The First Steamboat
His name was John Fitch.  Twenty years before the great experiment of Fulton and Livingston, on the Hudson, a steamboat was constructed and put into operation in Philadelphia, under his sole direction, and was found to go at the rate of eight miles an hour.

He was considered, in his day, as quite visionary, and being a poor man, found it difficult to command the means to make his experiment. "Had his means been equal to the accomplishment of his designs, there can be no doubt that he would now hold undisputed the honor of having given to the country this most noble and useful invention".

He at last became discouraged and disheartened, and ended his days by suicide, and lies buried at Bardstown, Kentucky.
