Our first knowledge of Tbomas A.

be was acting as tbesgentofBiogham

to tiur $'yo Forwurdiug Company,
whoso buHiuesB was ths currying of
merchandise across the Allegheny
mountains between Philudo.lpb.ia nud
Pittsburg. Strange as it muy . seem,
even al so late it duto, do railroad bad
yet traversed the great State of Penn
sylvania, and for a considerable dis
tance between Philadelphia aod Pitts
burg goods were transported io wagons
Mr. ISoott was located at llullidays

position he .did not poirss either

this completed to Pittsburg, aud Mr
Soott was appointed- Assistant Su
perintendent of Ibo Western Division,
extonding from Altoona to Pittsburg

miles with'hoadquarters ol Pittsburg,
lie chose iur bis euice tbe outer depot,
where everything connected with tbe
operating of'tbc road, fiom the repair
shop to the running of trains, would
come under bit immediate supervision ;
but not fully. Satisfied' with this, he
was among the first to bring' Ibe tele
graph to kit aid, thereby enabling blm
to manage and control bis traint and
employees aa absolutely Wbe a hun
dred miles or more away as though
gersooa'lly prevent with them. Mr.
tjott may have been the first to do
thit at all events ht conceived tbe
idea of having a telegraph instrument
and operator in hit own office. Tbe

aod eould not afford to pay ao opera
