Question:

What does because I had a wire from (random person ) mean?

I dont' know if quot;a wiremeans phone call, or whatever the original sentene from the story is as follows:quot;Because I had a wire from Hilton Cubittthis morning.quot;

Answer:

That's from the day of telegraph messages; it was the urgent medium.
Wire is as obsolete a word as telegram or cable, which is what wire stands for.
