Mr. James Scott has a garage in Silbury and now he has just bought
another garage in Pinhurst. Pinhurst is only five miles from Silbury,
but Mr. Scott cannot get a telephone for his new garage, so he has
just bought twelve pigeons. Yesterday, a pigeon carried the first
5 message from Pinhurst to Silbury. The bird covered the distance in
three minutes. Up to now, Mr. Scott has sent a great many requests
for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the
private ' telephone ' service
other. In this way, he has begun his own private telephone
service.
