No wrong numbers
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 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 other. In this way, he has begun his own private telephone service.

詹姆斯.斯科特先生在錫爾伯里有一個汽車修理部,現(xiàn)在他剛在平赫斯特買了另一個汽車修理部。平赫特離錫爾伯里只有5英里,但詹姆斯.斯科特先生未能為他新的汽車修理部搞到一部電話機,所以他買了只鴿子。昨天,一只鴿子把第一封信從平赫特帶到錫爾伯里。這只鳥只用了3分鐘就飛完了全程。到目前為止,斯科特先生從一個汽車修理部向另一個發(fā)送了大量索取備件的信件和其他緊急函件。就這樣,他開始自己的私人“電話”業(yè)務(wù)。
