To the Hon. Mr Brown at Cunninghams
Serbin on the 9th of September 1865
Dear Sir! As the Confederacy died and the mail contractor Schatte accordingly stopped to ride for Evergreen and Lexington, then the arrangement was
made that every week someone from Evergreen should come to receive here the mail – matters for the two post offices of Evergreen and Lexington. This
used to be done as long as Engelke was here. But after the departure of Engelke nobody more comes to demand the mail packages for Evergreen and
Lexington. Therefore I am not willing to amass and keep here the said packages.
Respectfully yours,
John Kilian, parson
