HC Deb 21 June 1877 vol 235 c89
MAJOR O'GORMAN

asked the Postmaster General, Whether he will be pleased to issue orders for the delivery, on the day of arrival, by the letter carriers of Waterford city, of all letters, & c. received daily in Waterford at 2 45 o'clock p.m. and which, by present regulation, are not delivered by the carriers in question till the day succeeding their arrival?

LORD JOHN MANNEES

, in reply, said, that after the 2 o'clock delivery at Waterford, letters, averaging only about 70 a-day, were received from six places. He did not think that the people of Waterford would like the delivery to be postponed till those letters were received, but he would make careful inquiry as to the expediency of having another delivery.
