§ MR. O'SHAUGHNESSY, (Limerick, W.)I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, if he will change the morning collection of letters at Dromin Cross and Ballincullee district, near Kilmallock, in the county of Limerick, for an evening one.
§ MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAINThe morning collection of letters at Dromin Cross and Ballincullee, County Limerick, does not involve any expense, as it is effected by the postman when making the delivery; but an evening collection could not be afforded without expense for providing a special messenger, and such expense is not warranted by the number of letters.
§ MR. O'SHAUGHNESSYWhat is the extra expense?
§ MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAINIt works out at about ½d. per letter collected each day.
