<h3>Telephony</h3> <p>After reading of <a href="/facts/Alexander_Graham_Bell/oQer2abq">Bell</a>'s 1876 announcement of the invention of the telephone, Sutton had designed about twenty different telephones within a year.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:62" href="#fn:62"><sup>62</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:63" href="#fn:63"><sup>63</sup></a>: 316 Australian historian <a href="/facts/Ann_Moyal/9KnzYNK6">Ann Moyal</a> states that Sutton "believed in the free flow of information as a gift to science ... patented little, although sixteen of his twenty original telephone designs were patented by others overseas".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:64" href="#fn:64"><sup>64</sup></a> </p><p>The first Australian telephone connection was made in <a href="/facts/Ballarat/8FFdS0Cz">Ballarat</a> and <a href="/facts/Ballarat_East/VwmNcN55">Ballarat East</a>, linking fire stations in the two towns. The exact location of one of the telephone sets can be seen in the <a href="/facts/Ballarat_East_Fire_Station/681uDRJU">Ballarat East Fire Station</a>. The device once allowed communication between the two fire brigades in Ballarat so that they could more accurately locate fires from their watch towers.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:65" href="#fn:65"><sup>65</sup></a> Sutton had also wired up Sutton's Music Stores,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:66" href="#fn:66"><sup>66</sup></a> his family business warehouses and offices, with a telephone network two years before an official Australian telephone system.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:67" href="#fn:67"><sup>67</sup></a> Sutton devised a method for using gas and water pipes as part of a telephone circuit.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:68" href="#fn:68"><sup>68</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:69" href="#fn:69"><sup>69</sup></a> </p> <h3>Microscopy</h3> <p>In 1885 after cholera outbreak on a ship in Queensland, Sutton obtained a slide and managed to photograph the cholera germ at 1000 times magnification. A letter to this effect, from Sutton, was published in <i><a href="/facts/The_Argus_(Melbourne)/6ScsbFGX">The Argus</a></i> on 28 December 1885.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:70" href="#fn:70"><sup>70</sup></a> </p> <h3>Photography</h3> <p>In the 1880s Sutton also devised a colour photography process but, although examples of this work exist, he did not commercialize it.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:71" href="#fn:71"><sup>71</sup></a>: 98–9, 103 </p> <h3>Television</h3> <p>In 1885, Sutton designed, but did not construct, a <a href="/facts/Mechanical_television/SpLyIh4T">mechanical television</a> apparatus to see the <a href="/facts/Melbourne_Cup/SJ6pyrkw">Melbourne Cup</a> in Ballarat.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:72" href="#fn:72"><sup>72</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:73" href="#fn:73"><sup>73</sup></a>: 319 Sutton had published his Telephane designs in 1890.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:74" href="#fn:74"><sup>74</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:75" href="#fn:75"><sup>75</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:76" href="#fn:76"><sup>76</sup></a> According to historian <a href="/facts/Ann_Moyal/9KnzYNK6">Ann Moyal</a>, the concept was never successfully demonstrated: "Sutton's 'TV system', which he called 'telephany', used all the latest technology, such as the recently-invented <a href="/facts/Kerr_effect/IoJN6wlW">Kerr effect</a>, the <a href="/facts/Nipkow_disk/45JbKkl1">Nipkow disc</a> (which <a href="/facts/John_Logie_Baird/bkngND9Q">Baird</a> was to use in the 'twenties) and the <a href="/facts/Resistive_opto-isolator/KBUe6Ihh">selenium photocell</a>. But its weak link in the 1870s was that the signal had to be transferred by telegraph lines, as radio had yet to arrive, and these were too slow to transmit the dashing horses of the Melbourne Cup successfully."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:77" href="#fn:77"><sup>77</sup></a> </p> <h3>Facsimile</h3> <p>Sutton used his telephane system to demonstrate facsimile transmission with the help of <a href="/facts/Nicola_Tesla/MzqGhnkj">Nicola Tesla</a> in England.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:78" href="#fn:78"><sup>78</sup></a>: 188–9 An account of his invention was later published in Washington in 1896, noting that the first patents for long-distance transmission of images dated back to 1867.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:79" href="#fn:79"><sup>79</sup></a> </p> <h3>Lifts</h3> <p>For the benefit of his mother, who had been paralyzed by a stroke, a new hydraulic lift had been installed in the newly built Suttons Music Emporium.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:80" href="#fn:80"><sup>80</sup></a>: 109 As Ballarat's low water pressure and lack of an efficient drainage system were incompatible, Sutton designed and built a new hydraulic mechanism to drive the lift.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:81" href="#fn:81"><sup>81</sup></a> This design was subsequently used by the <a href="/facts/Austral_Otis/cWAJqQhk">Austral Otis</a> company and exported for use in America.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:82" href="#fn:82"><sup>82</sup></a>: 110 </p> <h3>Automotive</h3> "Henry Sutton can be classed as an automobile inventor and designer rather than a manufacturer whose achievements were considerable and internationally recognized.

to afford a means of recording the experiences of members and others using motor cars and motor cycles; to promote investigation in their development; to co-operate in securing rational legislation and the formation of proper rules and regulations governing the use of motor cars and motor cycles in cities, towns and country districts; to maintain the lawful rights and privileges and protect the interests of owners and users of all forms of self-propelled vehicles whenever and wherever such interests, rights and privileges are menaced; to promote and encourage the improvement, construction and maintenance of roads and highways and the development generally in this State of motoring, and to maintain a club to be devoted to the interests and advancement of automobilism."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:97" href="#fn:97"><sup>97</sup></a> <h2 id="legacy">Legacy</h2> <h3>Henry Sutton Circuit</h3> <p>On 20 January 2004, several streets in the new Canberra suburb of <a href="/facts/Dunlop%2c_Australian_Capital_Territory/hhJWt0xK">Dunlop</a> were named after "inventors, inventions, and artists";
