Hillsboro. NC Post Office
March 28. 1848Dear Sir:
March 28. 1848Dear Sir:
I have no hesitation in giving it as my opinion, that if a post Office cannot be established
at the “Oakes,” the one at “Clover Garden,” ought to be removed to that place; nearly
ninetenths of the postage paid into the Office at Clover Garden is received from the
students of Mr. Binghams Schools. it is also a great inconvenience for the students
to mail Letters to be sent East at Clover Garden for further particular inquire of
Judge Mangum or my friend A W Venable who can give you all the information necessary.
Yours RespectfullyJ M Palmer P M.
W J Brown Esqr
2n Assistant P. M Generall
