Boy Paid For
Flying His Kite
The designer of the suspension
bridge across the Niagara gorge
was faced with the problem of
somehow getting a line or wire
across the stream in order to be
gin operations. He offered a prize
of $5 to the first boy who could
fly a kite across to the opposite
; bank. When a lad by the name of
Homan Walsh was successful, the
designer paid him off and then
used the kite string to drag larger
cords, then ropes, and finally the
! f’rst wire cable across.
