Hobbie, a U.S. Post Office Department official, one page, 8 x 9.75, June 12, 1844, informing Hamlin that the Post Office has received no application “to change the place of stopping the mail overnight on the route from Bangor to Houlton” and that Hamlin’s opposition to such an application will be placed on file should one arrive.
