~Greenviile, S. c.. We don't sec why
some people will put n letter in the
post office without n stamp on it. when
they do it, they are dcfrauding the mails,
and any postmaster that forwards a let
ter without n stamp on it lays himself
liable to the law. So if your letters are
not stamped no matter how important
they may be they will not reach their
destination. but will. he held by the
postmaster. Be snrc-snd stamp your
letters if you want them to 60 through.
Go made man and man made money,
