Li interesiĝis pri planlingvoj kaj estis aktiva volapukisto, poste li ankaŭ lernis Esperanton. En 1893 li kreis gravuroj al volapukaj libroj por Internacia ekspozicio de Ĉikago. Li lernis Esperanton rapide kaj povis paroli ĝin en Montrealo dum vojaĝo, pli facile ol en franca lingvo kaj tio tre entuziasmigis lin. Li estis malsana tuta sian vivon kaj mortis per tuberkulozo.

He was interested in constructed languages and was active in the Volapük movement, and also learned Esperanto. His obituary in the New York Times relates: Mr. French's hobby was universal language, for he was a facile linguist. He was Secretary of the Volapük Society of America, and had a considerable library in that language. Esperante (sic) and Idiom Neutral similarly attracted him. He was a member of the American Fine Arts Society, the International Academy of Volapuk, Ex-Libres Society of London, Ex-Libres Verein of Berlin, the Grolier Club, National Arts Club, Club of Odd Volumes, and Bibliophile Society. French had suffered from poor health most of his life, having left Brown University in his sophomore year because of it, and eventually succumbed to tuberculosis. (en)
