HC Deb 29 March 1887 vol 312 c1769
MR. O'HANLON (Cavan, E.)

asked the Postmaster General, What reply he received to his telegram as to the proposed post office at Grangegeith?

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

The Report in reference to Grangegeith, for which I telegraphed, duly came to hand. It appeared from that Report that a post office at Grangegeith, with a postman from Slane, would not be warranted at the cost of the revenue, even though the post was confined to three days a-week; but I directed further inquiry to be made as to the guarantee that would be reqired to make good the loss if a post six days a-week were established.
