To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With this commercial success — combined with the im- provements introduced into submarine cables, and the 406 THE ATLANTIC CABLE power of picking up and repairing them from vast depths — there was a future for submarine telegraphy to which scarcely any bounds could be imagined. A certain amount had already been done ; but China and Japan, Australia and New Zealand, South America and the West India Islands must all be placed within speaking distance of England. When this has been accomplished — ...but not till then— telegraphic engineers might take a short rest from their labours and ask with some little pride — QiicE res^io iti tern's Jtostri non plena laboris f (loud applause).
Then followed speeches from Lord Stanley, the American Consul (on behalf of Mr. Cyrus Field), and others.
Honours were subsequently bestowed on some of the various gentlemen most immediately con- cerned in those, at last, wholly successful under- takings of 1865 and 1866.
As a natural sequence other Atlantic cables followed — first of all in 1869 that hailing from France — until now (in 1898) the North Atlantic ocean alone is spanned by as many as twelve in working order.
