Interesting things to know George Boole
1. His wife name was Mary Everest Boole ( her uncle was George Everest, whose name is given to the highest peak of the world- Mount Everest)
2. In late November 1864, Boole walked, in heavy rain, from his home at Lichfield Cottage in Ballintemple to the university, a distance of three miles, and lectured wearing his wet clothes. He soon became ill, developing pneumonia. As his wife believed that remedies should resemble their cause, she wrapped him in wet blankets – the wet having brought on his illness. Boole's condition worsened and on 8 December 1864, he left for heavenly abode.
