From Conservapedia
Samuel Morse (1791-1872) artist, politician, inventor, educator and cryptographer. He revolutionized communications by inventing the telegraph and Morse Code. He was also an outstanding portrait artist who founded the National Academy of Design. He was a graduate from Yale College in 1810.
The son of a pastor, Morse built the first first telegraph lines between Baltimore and the U.S. Supreme Court chamber in Washington, D.C. His first message over these lines in 1844 was from the Bible, Numbers 23:23: "What hath God Wrought!"
Morse wrote a few years before his death: [1]
The nearer I approach to the end of my pilgrimage, the clearer is the evidence of the divine origin of the Bible, the grandeur and sublimity of God's remedy for fallen man are more appreciated, and the future is illumined with hope and joy
