" Our shore end has just been laid, and a most
perfect cable, under God's blessing, completes
telegraphic communication between England and
the Continent of America. I cannot find words to
express my deep sense of the untiring zeal and the
earnest and cheerful manner in which every one
on board, from the highest to the lowest, has
performed the anxious and arduous duties
they, in their several departments, have
had to perform. Their untiring energy and
watchful care night and day, for the period of two
weeks required to complete this work, can only be
fully understood and appreciated by one who like
myself has seen it. All have faithfully done their
duty, and glory in their success, and join with me
in hearty congratulations to our friendsin England,
who have in various ways laboured in carrying out
this great work."
On Monday, at the latest, it is expected that the
wire will be opened to the public, and the messages
sent exactly in the order of priority in which they
are received.
Applications formessages are already pouring in.
