Through the efforts of our ex-
fellow townsman Jos. Indest, now
Assistant Postmaster at New Or
leans, the town Of Eratb, on the I.
& V. R. R., will receive its mail
matter direct, instead of its first GO
ing to AbbevilIe, where 1T arrived in
the evening and was made up and
returned to Erath the following
morning. Of course this will prove
of material advantage to the bu-i.
ness men of that growing town.
