The Jackson Heraid says: "Rob-
crit NJ. Dutficld, of Rockc:lstle, is the
champion pedestrian. He has earn
ed this title by travelling more miles
within the past half dozen years
than any man in the service OF, the
United States government. Mr.
Duffield is in his siNtieth year. Six
years ago tic 18th of last December
he began carrying the mail between
Jackson C. III. and Buffalo. While
it is but p miles between the two
points, the postal route is Just AZ
miles in length. There is, witlall,
II large amount of mail matter dis
tributcd by him. During the first
fifteen months of his service, Mr.
Dutffcld did most of his travelling on
horseback, but in the spring of So,
finding it impossible to get feed for
his horse along the route he then
dispensed entirely with the services
of that trusty animal and for two
solid years made all his .iourneyings
as Il pedestrian. Besides his heavy
load of mail, it was nothing unusual
for him To strap plow-point and
other heavy articles over his Shout
der and carry them ten or twelve
miles. He has since mounted his
horse only occasionally. We have
never seen him astridc an animal
but once, though he comes here from
home and returns thcreto-thc trip
covering 30 milcs-cvcry Monday
