Ingenious Meter Plugging Ends in Fine for Doctor
Dr. Guy and his son Arthur conducted electricity experiments in Far Rockaway leading to a meter plug with a match that fooled the electric light company. The meter still registered, but the judge fined the doctor 250 dollars or 100 days in jail. The case highlighted the father’s belief in his son’s scientific talents and the son’s service in the Philippines.
