. . . "now before we begin the tour, folks, let
me tell you a little bit about why he came here in
the first place.
"He was taking a boat trip down the river and he
spotted that clump of bamboo. He'd wanted to
use bamboo in some of his experiments. So later he
came back and bought 14 acres.
"Over there's a dynamite tree. You oughta hear
those seed pods pop. Watch for the orchids along
the walk. This tree came from India. He collected
them from all over the world. He was interested
in what could be done with some of them."
The tourist in the thin sweater shivered a little in
the coolness by the river. The man with the camera
eyed the old house for unusual angles.
"Here's the office and the swimming pool. He
never had much time for swimming, but he sure
spent a lot of time in this office. It's been preserved
just as it was, even down to the turtleback spittoon. '
Some people like to glorify him because he was
such a famous man, but even geniuses are human. So
he liked cigars, but he chewed 'em mostly. That's
the reason for all the spittoons."
The house was a dim sanctum.
The tour group peered intently at the incandescent
bulbs and into the bedroom of his wife. It was
almost as though they expected a gentle, white-haired
woman to walk across to the spacious living room
under her own portrait It was almost as though he
might materialize in the wheel chair he used in the
years of his infirmity. It was creased still with
the marks of his heavy body.
In the pantry shone the copper of the samovar
from Czar Nicholas and on the porch wall hung the
varnished and long-defunct tarpon caught by
the scientist's son.
"Now, folks, step right along and we'll go over to
the rubber laboratory. He slept a little on this
cot when he was working on a new project. Like the
time he extracted rubber from goldenrod in case
America needed it in wartime. You can see back
there the morning glory phonograph he built. He
got pretty hard of hearing, but that didn't lick him.
He used these earphones. Sometimes he stayed
24 hours over here, working on his inventions."
An old photograph dominated the wall. The guide
pointed to it with his cane.
"There's the picture of him with his good
friends Henry Ford and Harvey Firestone. You can
tell he was a pretty good-sized fellow, but it looks
like he bought his suits even bigger."
The tourists chuckled. The white suit did appear
to wrinkle and fold about the old man. But one
of the group spoke quietly.
"I don't know. Lots of scientists these days. When
he lived, it seems like Tom Edison was a kind of giant.
"Maybe he was big enough for that suit after all."
