Ml‘. Eden's lctter. written from llic War‘ Office, which hc turns over to Capt.

He went 0n:- "We have rebuilt with all speed. The threat of immediate invasion menaccd our land. The work was pushed forward rapidly. Hour by hour our defences were strength- ened, our army reorganized, equip- ment issued; until. in the later summer. our forces at home, which included important contlngents of splendid Imperial and Allied troop, began to assume military poiver and authority equal to their iiilmense responsibility."

The letters and parcels in the assortment ar- rived at the office at six o'clock in the morning when the train was hours overdue reaching the city. There were l3 bags of letters or cards alone in the trucks. Mr. Har- old L. Pickard. Superintendent of Malls, said that this was the largest amount o1 mail he remembered be- ing delivered at the Charlottetown Post Office during his thirty years there. The largest remembered by him was seven truck loads during a former Christmas rush. Saturday's mail was also particularly heavy. On each of two days last week there were 50,000 cards or letters mailed at the local office. Besides this the staff was busy handling the thousands of cards arriving from the mainland. The surprising thing about the rush is that everything which arrived up until noon Sun- day was delivered before noon yes- terday. Letter carriers worked from six o'clock Friday evening and crin- tinued through the night and made the eight o'clock delivery Saturday morning. What is believed to be the largest sale of stamps in any single day in the history of the Post Office was made Thursday of last week when $1112. worth were sold. The record before this had been $1000. worth for a single day. The large staff M; the office kee-lxs the mail moving twenty-four hours a day.
