«ending them through thc post at or
dinary parcel rates, vp to 111b. in weight .
I am not sure about duty, but if there "
is it will be very small and is payable al
the other end. The rates- of postage on
parcels to England given on page 175 of
the Post Office Guide are:-1 pound, ls.
4d., and 6d. for every additional pound,
so that a 6îb. parcel would cost 3s. lOd.
I If you wish for any further information
apply to the postmaster and it will be
.his business to give it to you. .
