Great Inventor Erastus Bigelow Dies After Long Struggle
Erastus B. Bigelow, famed inventor of the carpet loom and former president of the Bigelow Carpet Company, died Sunday afternoon at his Commonwealth avenue home after paralysis. Born April 1814 in West Boylston, he rose from modest means to national prominence through inventions that revolutionized carpet weaving, earned patents, and spurred industry. He also promoted tariff ideas, ran for Congress in 1854, served as Paris commissioner in 1866, and held LL D and honorary memberships.
