The Royal Mail: Its Curiosities and Romance
·
James Wilson Hyde
54
At
a
place
called
Cavendish
Bridge
the
mails
were
arrested
by
the
storm,
and
the
exertions
of
the
coachman
and
guard
were
thus
referred
to
by
a
private
gentleman
of
the
neighbourhood,
who
communicated
with
the
Post-office
on
the
subject:
"I
take
leave
to
remark
that
the
zeal
and
industry
evinced
by
the
guard
and
coachman,
more
especially
the
former
(named
Needle),
upon
the
trying
occasion
to
which
your
communication
has
reference,
was
well
worthy
of
imitation,
and
formed
a
striking
contrast
to
the
reprehensible
apathy
of
two
gentlemen
who
were
inside
passengers
by
the
mail."
