MR. PATRICK O'BRIENI beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether the Postmaster General has received a memorial influentially signed by the gentry and traders of Drumconrath, asking for the establishment of direct postal communication between Drumconrath and Nobber; and whether it is intended to establish the service asked for; and, if so, when.
§ MR. HANBURYThis memorial has been received. It is proposed to arrange for the postman from Nobber and the postman from Drumconrath to meet every week day at Summerhill and exchange letters. By this means local letters will be available to callers at the Post Office at either place shortly after one o'clock on the day of despatch. This arrangement will be commenced at an early date.
