Although the phone lines had been cut, the RFC were flying over the whole area as they had taken aerial shots of the new German Lines so it would have been far simpler to put the message in a canister with ribbons attached and dropped by a plane onto the troops. They had enough time to make a number of drops to ensure success instead of just sending 2 men who may or may not get through. There was even enough space behind and around the Devon's position to safely land and take off again in a plane from that era.
