Telegraphy in the East



On this date in eighteen hundred and forty-seven

Two great cities were connected once and forever 

New York and Boston ... linked for an eternity ...

With telegraph wires ... establishing paternity ...



For these two cities were founding partners ...

In the land called America ... lighting darkness

For with the telegraph, came instant communication

... Needed ... in order to create growth in the nation
