The Starrick Telegraph Company was a front-company for the British Rite of the Templar Order that existed in London during the Industrial Revolution. Owned by the Templar Grand Master Crawford Starrick as a subsidiary of Starrick Industries, the company enjoyed a near-total monopoly on telegraph communication throughout the city thanks to Starrick's manipulation, sabotage, and control of independent telegraph companies.[1]
In 1868, this monopoly was broken by the combined efforts of Alexander Graham Bell and the British Assassin Evie Frye, who repaired the sabotaged communication lines that sat atop the Palace of Westminster, allowing the smaller firms to operate.[1]
