The Story of the Atlantic Telegraph
·
Henry M. Field
172
"The
progress
of
the
end
to
the
shore
was
very
slow,
in
consequence
of
the
very
stiff
wind
which
blew
at
the
time,
but
at
about
three
o'clock
the
end
was
safely
brought
on
shore
at
Knightstown,
Valentia,
by
Mr.
Bright
and
Mr.
Canning,
the
chief
and
second
engineers,
to
whose
exertions
the
success
of
the
undertaking
is
attributable,
and
the
Knight
of
Kerry.[D]
The
end
was
immediately
laid
in
the
trench
which
had
been
dug
to
receive
it,
while
a
royal
salute,
making
the
neighboring
rocks
and
mountains
reverberate,
announced
that
the
communication
between
the
Old
and
the
New
World
had
been
completed."
