Description: Before the development of electricity and electrical communications, the fastest information could travel was the speed of a horse. Maybe a ship might have been a bit faster depending on the route, but for the most part, the speed of information was limited to the speed of a human.  However, there was one exception to this. It was a communications method that could only carry small amounts of information, it only worked in one direction, and the number of messages you could send was limited, but it was faster than anything else.  It was used for centuries and was still relied upon even after the development of radio.
