Salem Witchcraft: With an Account of Salem Village, and History of Opinions on Witchcraft and Kindred Subjects.; Volume I

Excerpt from The Life of Timothy Pickering, Vol. 3 The President has desired me to confer with you on the proposition I made the other day of endeavoring to move the posts at the rate Of one hundred miles a day. It is believed to be practicable here, because it is practised in every other country. The difference of expense alone appeared to pro duce doubts with you on the subject. If you have no engage ment for dinner to-day, and will do me the favor to come and dine with me, we will be entirely alone, and it will give us time to go over the matter and weigh it thoroughly. I will, in that case, ask the favor of you to furnish yourself with such notes as may ascertain the present expense of the posts, for one day in the week, to Boston and Richmond, and enable us to calculate the savings which may be made by availing ourselves of the stages. Be pleased to observe that the stages travel all the day. There seems nothing necessary for us, then, but to hand the mail along through the night, till it may fall in with another stage the next day, if' motives of economy should oblige us to be thus attentive to small savings. If a little latitude of expense can be allowed, I should be for only using the stages the first day, and then have our own riders. I am anxious that the thing should be begun, bv way of experiment, for a short distance because I believe It will so increase the income of the Post-office as to show we may go through with it. I shall hope to see you at three O'clock. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
