Best Answer

He invented the traffic light after seeing a carriage accident at a four-way crossing.

He invented the gas mask (called a Breathing Device) as he saw the need for a system that would allow people to work in dangerous atmospheres. After a tunnel explosion at the Cleveland Waterworks below Lake Eyrie, Morgan walked into the tunnel wearing his gas mask and carried workers out on his back, saving their lives. He was awarded the Carnegie Medal and a Medal of Bravery from the city. His device saved thousands of soldiers from dying from chlorine gas in the trenches of World War 1.
