POST TOWNS AND SUB-OFFICES IN SCOTLAND.
MAILS FOR THE ORKNEY ISLANDS,
From the 1st April to the 30th September, the mails are despatched daily (excepting Sunday), from
Thurso, in Caithness, at 9.40 a.m., returning from Stromness at 4.45 a.m. During the winter months,
however, the mails are despatched on alternate days only, from Thurso at 12 noon, and from Stromness at
7.30 a.m. The distance is 30 miles.
MAILS FOR THE SHETLAND ISLANDS-
The mails for the Shetland Islands are despatched from Aberdeen every Friday Evening, arriving at
Kirkwall on Saturday, and at Lerwick on Sunday Morning ; returning from Lerwick to Aberdeen every
Monday at 6 and 10 p m. alternately, and from Kirkwall to Aberdeen every Tuesday at 6 a.m., during the
summer, from April to October. In winter the mails are conveyed direct from Aberdeen to Lerwick by a
sailing packet, the despatch and arrival of which are uncertain. The distance direct is about 200 miles.
LIST OF POST TOWNS AND SUB-OFFICES IN SCOTLAND.
When in the subjoined list one place only is mentioned, it is a Head Office, and when there are two, the
first is a Sub-Office, and the second is the Head Office to which the first is subordinate. It sometimes
happens that there is a Money Order Office nearer the Sub-Office than is the Head Office. In these cases
such Money Order Office is added as a third name fjr the information of any persons who may wish to
remit money to the neighbourhood.
Offices at which both Money Order and Savings Bank business is transacted, are marked thus, to, and
those which are Money Order Offices, but not Savings Banks, thus. o.
