37. Mr. TYSON WILSONasked if an appointment has yet been made to the vacant sub-postmastership at Chapel- 1396 town, Turton, Lancashire; and, if not, the reason why no appointment has been made?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEAn appointment has not been made. The sub-postmistress of Chapeltown, Turton, recently resigned her appointment, and, as it has not been possible to obtain another applicant for the vacancy, it has been necessary to close the office.
Mr. TYSON WILSONIs the right hon. Gentleman aware there are several persons willing to take the office?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEI shall be glad if they will come forward.
