son's opinion alone has been allcrwed to weigh
against that of Mr. Whitehouse in this important
question. The directors have called to their aid
several other gentlemen, all of whom have been for
many years practically connected with the working-
of telegraphs, and these gentlemen, after having
severally made their tests, concurred with Pro-
fessor Thomson in stating that the variable fault
referred to was the cause of the obstruction, and
that it exists at a distance of from 210 to 300 miles
from Valentia.
Some days previous to the 13th of August the
directors, feeling. convinced that Mr. Whitehouse
was embarrassed bi- some practical difficulties in
the nature or adjustment of his instruments, towards
the solving of. which the assistance of some person
experienced in the use of recording apparatus and
the toiling of submarine cables would be valuable,
desired that Mr.. Whitehouse and the company
Should have the advantage of the aid in this respect
of Mr. France, of the Submarine and Mediterranean
Companies (a practical telegraphist of very long
experience in the _testing a neworkin g of submarine •
cables), in the hOpe that thereby the line would the
sooner be available for public traffic.
After considerable difficuty they obtained Mr.
France's services, and on the 13th of August he left
for Valentin., the directors having previously advised
Mr. Whitehouse that he was coming.
• Mr. France bore a letter of introduction to Mr.
Whitehouse, signed by the chairman, at the request
of the board, directing him to accept his aid, but,
on his arrival at Valentia, he was prohibited by
Mr. Whitehouse from entering the company ti pre-
mises, and on the same day the following telegram
was addressed by Mr. Whitehouse to the Secretary
of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, through the
wires of the British and Irish Magnetic Telegraph
Company :
