§ MR. GORDON (Londonderry, S.)To ask the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that, owing to alterations made in the duties of the rural postman who collects and carries the mails between Sixtowns, Strand and Draperstown, he has frequently been unable to collect the letters at Strand and bring them to Draperstown in time for the 4.15. p.m. train, and that in consequence the letters have been delayed overnight at Draperstown; and whether he will inquire into the matter and give directions that it be set right.
(Answered by Lord Stanley.) I am not aware of the circumstances referred to by the hon. Member, but I will direct the surveyor of the district to inquire into the matter.
