POSTAL DIRECTORY.
All Head Offices are Money Order Offices, but sometimes there is a Money
Order Office nearer to the Sub-office than is the Head Office. In these cases
such Money Order Office is added as a third name, for the information of
any person who may wish to remit money to the neighbourhood.
As regards Town receiving Offices, those only are entered at which Money
Order business is transacted ; and these will be found under the names of
their respective Head Offices.
The last word in the address of every letter, &c, should be the name of
the town to which, or near to which, the letter is sent ; except when the
Post-Office at that town is only a Sub-Office, in which case, the Head Office,
to which this office is subordinate, must be added ; and except, also, that
where there are two Post Towns of the same name, the County must be
given.
Offices at which both Money Order and Savings Bank business is tran-
sacted are marked thus (a), and those marked thus (c) are Insurance and
Annuity Offices, and those marked thus (b) are Telegraph Offices.
There are also several places in the following list which are not marked,
at which Railway Companies, collect and deliver Messages on behalf of the
the Post Office.
Information in regard to such Railway Telegraph Offices, may be obtained
at any Postal Telegraph Office.
