Alexander Graham Bell is credited with the invention of the telephone as well as the telegraph that could send several messages at once over one wire.   Working with Thomas Watson he worked with tuned reeds and magnets to make a receiving instrument and sender.  These two instruments  worked together to send a musical note for the first time on a telephonic system  on June 2, 1875.  The U.S. Patent Office granted Bell the patent for “electric speaking telephone “ and it is considered to be the single most valuable single patent ever issued.   Graham Bell was born in Scotland and died in Nova Scotia after working in both  Canada and the United States during his years as a scientist and inventor.   He died on Cape Breton Island. Nova Scotia  on August  2nd, 1922 and during his funeral service all telephones on the Bell system in the United States and Canada were kept silent for one minute.
