Under-sea cable telegraph line

When England was linked for the first time with India on 23 June, 1870 via thousands of km of cables laid painstakingly below the seas, time was reduced from months to minutes. According to the document, the first message was dispatched on the night of 23 June, 1870 and a reply was received in 5 minutes, which was a technological feat at the time. The message was called a 'complimentary telegram' between the 'Managing Director in London and the Manager in Bombay.'  The first message was from 'Anderson to Stacey: How are you all? to which the reply was: 'All well.'
