HC Deb 26 January 1897 vol 45 c502
MR. JASPER TULLY (Leitrim, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether he is aware that great inconvenience has been felt by the large number of people residing in the district between Johnston's Bridge and Lough Rynn, in South Leitrim, owing to there being no postal service between Johnston's Bridge and Lough Rynn sub-office to Dromod, a distance of eight or nine miles; and whether he is prepared to inquire as to the advisability of having a postal service established from Johnston's Bridge through Tooman, and returning by Cloncarn?

MR. HANBURY

The Postmaster-General has received no application for the establishment of a Post through the district between Johnston's Bridge and Lough Rynn. Instructions have been given, however, for a Return to be taken of the amount of correspondence which would be benefited by the establishment of such a Post, and as soon as a report has been received the result shall be communicated to the hon. Member.
