Letters
for
the
United
Kingdom
found
to
contain
coin
are
only
forwarded
to
their
destination
under
certain
restrictions.
Such
letters,
if
not
registered,
are
at
once
treated
as
if
they
were,
and
charged
on
delivery
with
a
double
registration-fee,
or
eightpence
in
addition
to
the
postage.
REGISTERED
LETTERS.
The
registration-fee
of
fourpence,
prepaid
in
stamps,
will
secure
careful
treatment
to
any
letter,
newspaper,
or
book-packet
addressed
to
any
part
of
the
United
Kingdom.
Record
is
kept
of
all
such
letters
throughout
their
entire
course.
The
registration
of
a
packet
makes
its
transmission
more
secure,
by
rendering
it
practicable
to
trace
it
from
its
receipt
to
its
delivery.
For
a
fee
of
sixpence
letters
may
be
registered
to
any
British
colony,
except
Ascension,
Vancouver's
Island,
British
Columbia,
and
Labuan,
for
which
places
they
can
only
be
registered
part
of
the
way.
Letters
may
be
registered
to
several
foreign
countries
at
varying
rates.
(See
British
Postal
Guide.)
Every
letter
meant
for
registration
should
be
presented
at
the
post-office
window,
or
counter
(as
the
case
may
be)
and
a
receipt
obtained
for
it,
and
must
on
no
account
be
dropped
into
the
letterbox
among
the
ordinary
letters.
If,
contrary
to
this
rule,
a
letter
marked
"registered"
be
found
in
the
letter-box,
addressed
to
the
United
Kingdom,
it
will
be
charged
an
extra
registration-fee
of
double
the
ordinary
fee,
or
one
of
eightpence
instead
of
fourpence.
The
latest
time
for
posting
a
registered
letter
on
payment
of
the
ordinary
fee
is
generally
up
to
within
half
an
hour
of
the
closing
of
the
letter-box
for
that
particular
mail
with
which
it
will
require
to
be
forwarded.
A
registered
letter
will
be
received
at
all
head
offices
up
to
the
closing
of
the
general
letter-box,
or
until
the
office
is
closed
for
the
night,
on
payment
of
a
late
fee
of
fourpence
in
addition
to
the
ordinary
registration
fee.
All
fees,
as
well
as
postage,
of
registered
letters
must
be
prepaid
in
stamps.
A
registered
letter,
when
re-directed,
is
liable
to
the
same
additional
charge
as
if
it
were
an
ordinary
letter,
the
original
register
fee,
however,
sufficing
until
it
is
delivered.
