Description

Rate: Annotation manuscript ‘2d / 3d’ indicating ‘2d’ for the inland postage rate which under the 1846 Postal Ordinance is the correct rate between Post Towns or Villages for letters unto 1/2 ounce, the ‘3d’ presumably indicating the rate of 2d + (1d), the 1d being the additional town rate within Post Louis as the cover was presumably uncollected by the recipient and hence was re-delivered in town. The ‘2d’ should have been crossed
