The Wright Brothers
by Anonymous
The story of the Wright brothers is an inspiring narrative of success. Wilbur and Orville combined to a rare degree the searching intelligence of the scientist, the ability to visualize of the inventor, and the practical craftsmanship of the builder. In addition they had great personal courage.
The Wright brothers sprang from pioneers who settled Dayton when the Ohio country was young. Their father, the Reverend Milton Wright, became a bishop of the United Brethren Church. His vocation necessitated frequent changes of residence. Thus it came about that Wilbur was born April 16, 1867, on a farm eight miles from Newcastle, Indiana, while Orville was born in a house at 7 Hawthorn Street in Dayton. This house was the Wright home for more than forty years.
