Memorandum from William Shadrack Shallenberger to Robert John Wynne
Second Assistant Postmaster General Shallenberger sends Postmaster General Wynne a memorandum regarding the establishment of mail service on the electric car line between Watertown, New York, and the nearby village of Dexter, New York. A prior report, made in the spring, had said that improvements were being made on the line, and that the operating company did not wish to carry mail until after the improvements were completed, likely by fall. A petition reopening the matter has been received, Shallenberger states that while an updated report on the status of the line has not yet been received, the case will be given prompt attention.
