CAPTAIN CRAIGI beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether he will arrange a daily postal delivery to and from Strangford, Cloghy, Kilclief, Killard, and Ballyhornan in place of the four deliveries per week, as at present, in view of the fact that the residents of those neighbourhoods have been accustomed for the past twenty years to have their letters delivered on the two days when the postman did not call by the coastguard-men at Killard, which station has recently been abolished.
§ MR. SYDNEY BUXTONA delivery on every week-day is already afforded at Cloghy and in a part of Kilclief; but I regret to find that owing to the comparatively high cost of the existing service to the other places mentioned, I should not be justified in incurring the additional expenditure which would be involved by increasing the frequency of the post at those places.
