The telegraph reaches Weinwick
The first message sent is the front-line report. The switch was thrown a few minutes late. Nobody in Weinwick minded.
Weinwick: The telegraph reaches Weinwick. The first message sent is the front-line report. The bell was rung at the church and the townspeople turned out to see. A statement is expected in the coming days.
The event is expected to be spoken of at the next market day, when the farmers come in from the surrounding country and the price of peat is settled for the month.
Those concerned: Weinwick (location); Long Gate (street).
The Grand Chancellor, Nadja Maller, has been briefed.
The Herald will follow the matter.
