Answer 2

In the summer of 1907, the American economy was showing signs of weakness as a number of business and Wall Street brokerages went bankrupt. In October, the respected Knickerbocker Trust in New York City and the ¹Westinghouse Electric Company both failed, touching off a series of events known as the Panic of 1907.
In the wake of the initial business collapses, stock market prices plummeted and depositors made a massive run on the nation’s banks. The U.S. Treasury pumped millions of dollars into weak banks in the hope of saving them, but the string of collapsed institutions lengthened.

Answer 4

My grandparents were all alive during that time. None of them had a car in those days. Farms were plowed with horse and plow. My great grandfather around that time was the first farm to get a furnace. A lot of houses still did not have electricity depending upon where they were.

This was in the days before antibiotics, and many people still went to one-room school houses, especially if they lived in the country.
