Telegrams have a quaint connotation these days I suppose.
In old Indian movies, a Telegram would only arrive to signify really bad news - someone died, or something like that. Why else would you pay for that expense? Well, it could also be a job interview or posting. So the connotation there, in that time, was probably not so good.

> Not long ago I received my first and last telegram
> I found this telegram tucked into a passage on the Jewish community in Sarajevo [...] The recipient of the telegram was Ann Cottrell Free
I dare say he didn't receive, he found, and it's not his but someone else's telegram.
