CORRESPONDENCE.
To the Editor of the 'Evening Mail.' Sir — Will you allow me space in your paper to contradict a report that has been ■ circulated at Wakefield. It is reported that at the public meeting held at the Choral Hall on the 27th ultimo, I said Mr Currin had to wait an hour or an hour and a half for his letters at the Post Office. What I did say was that if Mr Currin had been here —meaning at the meeting— he could have told them that the Post and Registrar's Office was a nuisance to us business people near the office, as persons in the outlying districts often came into the shop and spent threepence or sixpence, and stopped there for an hour or an hour and a half waiting ■ for the office to open. Of course we cannot leave the shop while a customer is there, so that the present arrangement is a nuisance to those who are living iv the neighborhood of the office.— l am, &c, ___ W. Painton. Wakefield, May 6, 1878.
