Thus, the electric telegraph was born. One of the most identifiable names connected with the telegraph is Samuel Morse who is most notable for the series of dots (quick noise) and dashes (more continual sound) which was used to send messages by alphabet code (thus known as Morse Code). Telegraph became the sole ways of quick far away communication until 1877 and the development of the telephone.
