§ MR. COX (Clare, E.)asked the Postmaster General, If any appointment has yet been made to the vacant office of postmaster in Six Mile Bridge, County Clare; and, whether there is any foundation for the rumour, that the post office is now about being removed to a distance of over one mile outside the town, to the great inconvenience and against the wishes of the vast majority of the people of the town and the surrounding district?
§ THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University), in reply, said, that no appointment had yet been made to the post office referred to. The Treasury had nominated a candidate; but he would not be appointed 1755 unless he provided a suitable office in the town, and made proper provision for the discharge of the duties.
