As a historian, I applaud you on this video. It is amazing and gives so much history without saying much. Definetly useful in my research on Galveston as well. Thank you!
Great video. A very poignant subject, but worth telling. I think the Pan. of Wreckage at the Waterfront (second part) was at 25th and Harborside (Water St.). There's a building in the background at about 7:46 in the video that resembles a building that used to stand next to the Hutchings-Sealy building, so I figure they were filming about a block away.
My husband's great grandfather was shot by Thomas Edison's hired thug. Edison stole his patent ( like he did from so many ) in NJ.1895 . Mr. Morrin took Edison to court and won. Edison was Not happy. He hired a 22 year old painter out of Ky. to shot Mr. Morrin . Morrin never met the kid and the fact that 2 Lawyers for this kid were Edison's lawyers. Morrin won that case also and the kid got 10 yrs and $10,000.00 fine and the lawyers were taking this kid back to Ky and he was declared Insane. The place this kid was at burned down a few weeks later. No need for this kid anymore. I found a few of these types of stories . Edison was Not the man History talks about. Mr. Morrin died 4 years later. Your work is Wonderful thank you.
Unbelievable. Thank you.
Really fantastic work JR! Hope you’re well.
Thank you very much!!
