The result of his French reverses followed him, and caused him much annoyance. After the return of the family to London in February, 1856, he was again arrested upon these French demands, and detained for a few days in a sheriff's office, as he would not accept the bail offered by his English friends, preferring to remain under arrest until he could prove, as he soon did, that his detention was secured by fraud.

God hath set the one over against the other. I write you from the snug little parlor at the 'Pavilion, ' where hangs the engraving of the convalescent soldier from Waterloo, his wife and baby by his side, and on the other side of the room the prisoner chiseling the image of Christ on the prison wall with a nail.

I cannot but believe they were ordered for some special purpose for my good, or for that of my family, even in this life, and that it will be explained here.

Book Description
Excerpt from Trials of an Inventor: Life and Discoveries of Charles Goodyear Says Dr. Bacon, in a sermon preached in his own church, in New Haven, the Sabbath succeeding the funeral of Mr. Charles Goodyear, "the singular story of his life, and the greatness of the contribution which he has made to the wealth and welfare, not of his native city only but of his country, and to the commerce, industry, and material civilization of the world, will justify my reference to him in connection with the subject of discourse."
