Fultz Wm. H. (w3183)

One-armed musician. Spectators on the streets Wednesday were treated to a novel sight as they wandered along: that of a one-armed musician, who manipulated several musical instruments at the same time with apparent ease.

Wm. H. Fultz, globe-trotter and world traveler, was the man who attracted the attention of passers-by by his performances. Fultz played a violin, a French harp, and an autoharp, all at the same time, the latter instrument being played by means of a wire attached to the toe of his shoe. He rendered the latest popular and classical music in a manner that would have been creditable to a more fortunate person in a physical way. Fultz was the personification of good nature and said that a man need not necessarily be handicapped by the absence of one limb. He makes his way readily through the world by his own efforts and seems proud of his independence. He can use a typewriter with equal ease as he does his musical instruments, as was evidenced by an exhibition he gave in the office of the Paris Commercial Club.
