Young Robert Fulton was jo only fine looking but waé brilliant and magnetic, atid one of the beat dancers of his.contury. Women went wild over him. And in England in |1806 one of them offered him both love and fortune.

And one of these men, Wal- A Girl's ter Livingston, invited him to visit his Hudson River estate, Clermont At Clermont the inventor proceeded to fall in love with his host's daughter, Harriet Livingston, a beautl- ful girl, who had an almost sublime faith in his invention, She cheered him in his many moments of depression and helped him to interest capl- talists in his scheme. Though Harrict was the daughter of a rich man (ind Fulton was not only penniless, but was regarded by most people as mildly insane on the subject of steam) she eagerly accepted the inventor's proposal of marriage, success of the steamboat depended all their ‘e.

Beside Fulton as the voyage began stood Harriet Livingston.
