<p>With 2 skyhooks placed in drilled divots for aid, a source of controversy at the time. <a href="/climber/1141/keith-myhill">Keith Myhill</a> wrote in a letter to <em>Mountain</em>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>This event must surely mark the lowest point in gritstone climbing for a very long time.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>To which Drummond replied:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>…Rome wasn't built in a day, nor Cenotaph ascended by Saint Joseph without a pin here and a pin there. And <a href="/climb/3137/quietus">Quietus</a> top-roped first. I'm still learning how to learn. Silly Myhill. It isn't your hill. The route is there for you too. Go on – open your legs – let's see what you can do. Balancing on those two impeccable skyhooks should keep you quiet. You might even learn to pray; and not prey.</p>
