1925 - Jul 8 - Attention to Cottagers
    Having heard that only the support of 15 East Side cottagers was obtainred by the the 2 rural carriers in their offer to deliver mail twice a day I beg leave to again call the attention of the cottagers to this matter

    I feel sure it has been overlooked. The benefit derived would be greatly enjoyed by all the summer colony. THe charge demanded is only a fair one. Will all the readers of the Citizen whom this effects kindly gibe it their early attention and if interested leave a note in their mail boxes.
