Free Delivery of Mail
Was First Tried in 1851

During the first half of the Nine
teenth century the United States
post Office was simply a depot for
incoming and outgoing mail. In 1851
an act Of congress provided for
free delivery of mail by carriers in
Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
and New Orleans. Later, ST eet let
ter boxes were set up, making it UNI
necessary to 60 to the post office
either to post letters or to inquire
for mail.
Prior to the Inauguration of these
conveniences, relates a writer in
the Chicago Tribune, their need had
been recognized in many cities and
districts. and private dispatch and
express companies had been or
ganized to pick up and deliver let
tiers and parcels. Mail destined with
in the range of the express COM
pany's service was delivered to the
addressee, while that consigned
elsewhere was delivered to the post
office.
In 1860 congress made it illegal to
operate a private express service
between points served by the United
States mail. except for the carrying
OF newspapers and periodicals.
Eventually all Of the highways and
byways were declared to be post
roads and the private carriers were
legislated out of existence.
