		Bell's family experienced the tragic deaths of Bell's oldest and youngest brothers to tuberculosis, and therefore hastily moved to Tutelo Heights near Brantford in Ontario, Canada, in 1870, to escape the fogs of England.
		Bell was then working on a spark arrester for the multiple telegraph, and he regulated the resistance between the two wires by dipping their ends into a vessel of water, varying the resistance by adjusting the depths to which the wires were submerged.
		Bell returned to America in 1878, and moved to Washington, D.C. He did not take an active part in the telephone business, although he was frequently called upon to testify in lawsuits brought by men claiming they had invented the telephone earlier.
