By 1883 the `` Battenkill Telegraph Company '' was in existence and Alvin Pettibone was its president.
Operating in 1887 was the `` Valley Telegraph Line '', officers of which were E. C. Orvis, president ; ;
Two companies now had headquarters with Clark J. Wait, who by then had his own drugstore at Factory Point -- the `` Northern Union Telegraph Company '' and the `` Western Union ''.
Still existing on a `` Northern Union '' telegraph form is a typical peremptory message from Peru grocer J. J. Hapgood to Burton and Graves' store in Manchester -- `` Get and send by stage four pounds best Porterhouse or serloin stake, for Mrs. Hapgood send six sweet oranges ''.
