William Murdoch was an acclaimed Scottish inventor, a giant of the Industrial Revolution. Lord Kelvin, referring to Murdoch’s greatest invention—gas lighting, said that Murdoch did “great things for the whole world.” Perhaps at that time he did but nobody remembers it much now.

To God be the glory! Great things He hath done:
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son.
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the Life-gate that all may go in. —Ira D. Sankey
