Gaultier was mentioned briefly in The REO News from June 1958.
This digital scan from the REO News displays the following text:
"Features of construction in Gaultier were the submarine cable to Little Island and the underground P.V.C. supply to consumers at the edge of Coxstown Airport. 181 extra consumers were connected, but at so low a return that the overall return dropped from 5.82% to 5.58%.
Sales reflected the varied fortunes in the different areas. In Gaultier, Mr. Reddy achieved the splendid total of £3,217."
