The Early Mails


A note from the editor appeared
in the Spy of January 6, 1871, thank
ing the gentleman who sent him a
late Baltimore paper. CAS- the post
arrived so seldom and precarious
during the winter the editor will
receive every communication with
thanks"
At this stage of our country's his
tory the postage stamp was unheard
of. Rates for postal service were
paid in cash, and a customer had to
wait while clerk figured the rate
according to the letters destination.
1t cost over Is cents to send one
folded sheet of paper a distance
equal to that between Boston and
New York.
The service was not very depend
able and consequently much mail
was sent C. o. D. to give the letter
more chance of being delivered.
There were private companies run
ming good competition to Uncle Sans
postal service at this time and some
of them were cheaper and quicker,
especially after they started using
stamps.
The government forced these pri-
vate concerns out and became the
sole carrier of mail in America in
1845.
In 1892 mail left Baltimore at

There was great carelessness among
clerks and mail carriers in these
early offices. The carrier bring
ing Philadelphia mail from Cham
bersburg would often come with
out the mail, rather than wait a few
minutes for the mail bag to be made
ready.
In 1896 the office was moved to a
house known as mt Hart" prob
ably one of the properties of Col.
Thomas Hart. 1 have no informa-
ton as to where the post office was
located before 1896, but Robert
Rochester had been postmaster in
Hagerstown, so it was probably in
his home.
After 1896, when Mr.. Hart re-
ceived mail he closed the door, but
there was such a constant knocking
for admission, that the postmaster
invented a device to protect him
self from the annoyance. When the
mail bag had been opened and the
letters were ready for delivery a
white flag was displayed from one
of the windows. Public notice was
given that under no circumstances
would the door be opened until the
flag was out.
On Monday mornings a carrier de-
livered Hagerstown mail that had
not been picked up.
Note: The above is based on in
formation taken from Williams

Horse And Buggy Days
BY IDA 10 MARTIN

The following extraordinary story,
of pres. P. C. A. days, is taken
from copy of the Evening Globe
dated March "a, 1902.
Two Sisters Purify Their Cattle
Forty-five years ago John Faith
of Dry Run bought some cattle that
were too weak to walk, revealing
situation both fantastic and
CHASTITY. Mr. Faith had to haul his
cattle to his place from their former
home near Kaisesville, and reported
a number of dead cattle at that
place. DR.. D. Rider, the veterinary
surgeon, was sent to investigate
because of the possibility of disease.
But DR.. Rider found the trouble to
be with the two Brewer sisters,
owners. who believed in witchcraft,
and no disease in the cattle. Only
one of the sisters was home at the
time of DR.. Riders visit, but she
told him plainly that witches had
gotten into the cattle and it was
necessary "to deprive them of food
and water in order to drive the
spirits out. It did. 1t drove them
completely out of fourteen cattle
living in her barn. The other four
teen head bought by Mr. Faith and
given food and water had gained
in strength and were in healthy
thriving, condition.
DR.. Rider reported finding no
feed for the cattle in the Brewer
barn, but straw, and was told they
always fed their cattle in winter
on straw. 1t was obvious that these
cattle had been deliberately starved
to death. It was reported by neigh
bors that these sisters weer quite
wealthy, and the people of the COM
munity were in a state of anger
and indignation toward the two sis
tiers for their wanton cruelty.
Some advertisements in the
same paper:
We're not doctors-but if you
have an aching void we can cure
you. There is nothing that will
satisfy the elmer man" like Nc
Lauglin's Bread, Cakes, and Rolls.

 PLANS MADE FOR

Whether the Evergreen Bowl early morning service at 6:30 o'clock will be sunrise service or service in the quiet dew and stiffness of the morn" is a bit uncertain. It might mist a bit, the weatherman thinks, but the service will be held, either way. Zach Gordon will act as general chairman, seeing that the service runs smoothly, and Coastguards- man w R. Peterson, Jr., of the Wachusett, will lead the singing. The two hymns, which will be printed on the bulletin, will te Up from the Grave He Arose,

NEW pEMeeRAes'

FoRTY-TWo centuries look down upon Americas ambassadors of freedom in Korea. Of succession of ruthless rulers there now remains a race eager to adopt the freedom of the Western world. !, Few citizens of other lands will get to see Korea before the new way takes hold. Few, that is besides Regular Army men who have requested assignment to occupation forces in Korea and who are helping to bring about the change. Many of these young men volunteers from every neighborhood = are broadening their experience not only by learning about Korea's amazing history, but also by exploring thousand unique sights far from the beaten tourist track.
 Americans have no corner on this curi- osity. The Koreans, too have much to learn .. principles of democracy, woman suffrage, universal schooling, and individual initiative in developing the lands abundant resources These rights and privileges have been insti- tuted by the new Korean government, aided by the U. S. Army. Healthy attitudes toward these reforms are being absorbed from the Army man himself "a personal representa- tive of the U. S. Government. He is regarded with respect wherever he goes.
 The Army realizes the importance of having top-hight men in the Far East and has opened three-year enlistments in certain Ground Forces divisions stationed there. Full information may be obtained at the nearest U. S. Army Recruiting Station.
