HC Deb 18 August 1887 vol 319 c934
MR. SHEEHY (Galway, S.)

asked the Postmaster General, Whether he will make arrangements by which Kinvara may derive the advantages of the accelerated mail service, in so far, at least, as to get a mid-day delivery of the letters sent on there by the morning mails, and reaching Ardrahan, five miles distant, at an early hour?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University)

I beg to state that the question of effecting a mid-day delivery of letters at Kinvara must depend on the number of letters for delivery, and the expense to be incurred in delivering them. Returns are being prepared; and as soon as they are completed, and I have considered them, I will lose no time in arriving at a decision.
