Excerpt from The Railway Mail Service: Its Origin and Development

The account presented in this book appeared substantially in the same form in my recent volume Of recollections, My Day and Generation. I have tried to make the article of interest to the general public, but I have also had especially in mind its appeal to the great army of faithful and efficient postal railway clerks, who, night and day, in darkness and sunshine, through storm and ﬂood, are traversing this vast continent, so distributing our mail that it may reach its destination in the shortest time possible.
