Zerah Whipple grew up in his grandfather's home. He imbibed his religious zeal and inherited his remarkable talents. He loved and admired his uncle Enoch and his cultured wife. He spent many evenings with them in their delightful home. As he grew to manhood, he began to wonder why other deaf people could not be taught to talk like his uncle Enoch, and his grandfather convinced him they could. He determined to make teaching the deaf and dumb to speak and read the lips his life work. He advertise...d for pupils, and November 15, 1869, a young lad of twelve years from a wealthy Quaker family of Wilmington, Delaware, was brought to the Whipple home in Ledyard, Connecticut, for instruction. The old EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS 267 grandfather showed Zerah how to begin his work in bringing speech to the dumb lips of the boy, and Zerah quickly acquired skill in teaching and obtained gratifying results. Although this bo}- was twelve years old when his education began, he acquired good, intelligible speech, was a fine lip reader, and had a liberal education when he left school at the time of Zerah's death in 1879.
