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, 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.
In 1868 this monopoly was broken by the combined efforts of Alexander Graham Bell and the Assassin Evie Frye, who repaired the sabotaged communication lines that sat atop the Palace of Westminster, which allowed the smaller firms to operate.[1]
