Secrets Of Perpetual Power - Hendershot Mystery by Barry Hilton
During the period 1925 to 1928, an unknown backyard inventor by the
name of Lester Hendershot, who lived in Elizabeth, a small town near
Pittsburgh USA, constructed a device that could be utilised either as a
motor or to supply electricity without the use of any known conventional
fuel.
That his invention worked, and was not the outlandish claim of some
fraudulent individual or crackpot, has been fully documented in the appen-
dices to this book. Hendershot had been educated to high school level and
had only. the most basic understanding of conventional electrical theory,
yet working entirely on his own and financed from his own meagre income,
he produced what should have been acclaimed as the most revolutionary
invention of the twentieth century. But like so many other inventors,
whose creations have threatened the power base of big business, his
efforts to achieve commercial success were to prove fruitless.
In the fall of 1927, Hendershot had perfected his inventions to the point
where they could be effectively demonstrated to potential financiers. In
this pursuit, he enlisted the help of a gentleman by the name of D. Barr
Peat, the Manager of the local airfield, who had become so enthusiastic in
Hendershot's work, that he immediately made arrangements for further
demonstrations to influential officials he considered could assist in its
commercial exp10itation. The potential magnitude of Hendershot's discov-
eries was so great, that it was soon snapped up by the American press, and
Hendershot became a national celebrity overnight. Realising the possible
impact that such an invention could have on the US economy, the wealthy
industrialists, who controlled the power and fossil fuel markets, were quick
to act, and within just a few days the entire incident was buried in the
archives of the American press.
Within those few days of National prominence, Hendershot was to suffer a
debilitating injury from an electric shock, threats to his life and humiliation
in an attempt to brand him as a fraud. Finally, he was to be silenced by the
powerful vested interests who wished to retain the status quo.
