MR. T. SMITH (Leitrim, S.)I beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether, owing to the inconvenience that exists in Carrigallen, county Leitrim, in not having a midday delivery of letters, he will have a second delivery of letters granted, as Carrigallen is only six miles from Killeshandra, where there is a second delivery, and consequently the extra expense would be very small.
§ MR. SYDNEY BUXTONAs the cost of the postal service now afforded at Carrigallen is already high compared with the amount of the correspondence, I regret that I am unable to grant a second delivery in the day unless the residents are prepared to bear the additional expense, which is estimated at about £27 a year.
