The Royal Mail: Its Curiosities and Romance

"I
am
sorry
you
have
had
so
much
trouble
respecting
the
registered
letter
supposed
to
have
been
lost
in
transmission
from
my
wife
to
me
in
----.
But
I
assure
you
the
letter
was
most
carefully
and
punctually
delivered,
not
having
been
even
a
post
behind
its
due
time,
and
I
think
your
case
can
hardly
have
referred
to
me
at
all.
There
was
another
Rev.
J----
D----
(the
same
name)
travelling
in
Norway
at
the
same
time,
whose
letters
kept
crossing
my
path
everywhere;
and
when
I
read
them,
I
was
almost
in
doubt
whether
I
was
myself
or
him,
for
his
wife
had
the
same
name
as
mine,
and
his
baby
the
same
name
as
mine,
and
just
the
same
age;
but
who
he
can
be
I
cannot
make
out,
only
he
is
not
I.
Perhaps
the
registered
letter
which
has
given
you
such
trouble
may
have
been
for
him.
It
may
satisfy
you,
however,
to
know
that
mine
was
all
right."
