Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -New York University professor Samuel Morse (pictured at left) began working on his version of the telegraph in 1832; he developed Morse Code (a set of sounds that corresponded to particular letters of the alphabet), in 1835; and by 1838 he had presented his concept to the U.S. Congress.

Detailed explanation-2: -Samuel Morse independently developed and patented a recording electric telegraph in 1837. Morse’s assistant Alfred Vail developed an instrument that was called the register for recording the received messages.
