§ MR. HAYDEN (Leitrim, S.)asked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether the Postmaster General will have steps taken to re-establish the mid-day mail service for the town of Ballinamore, county of Leitrim, and thereby prevent the inconvenience caused to traders by having their letters detained in Carrick-on-Shannon Post Office for over twelve hours?
§ THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. HENRY H. FOWLER,) (Wolverhampton)In reply to the hon. Member, I beg to say that nothing is known at the Post Office of the Mid-day Mail Service to which the hon. Member refers. It does not seem that there ever was a Mid-day Mail Service to Ballinamore; and after careful inquiry in Ireland no trace can be found of any application for the establishment of such a Service.
