Excerpt from The Historical Collections of the Danvers Historical Society, Vol. 7 On the United States Post Office at Washington is the fol lowing inscription: Messenger of Sympathy and Love; Servant of Parted Friends; Consoler of the Lonely; Bond of Scattered Family; Enlarger of the Common Life; Carrier of News and Knowledge; Instrument of Trade and Industry; Promoter of Mutual Acquaintance of Peace and Goodwill among Men and Nations. I aml indebted very much to Daniel C. Roper's new book entitled The United States Post Office for many of the facts and statements which I Shall give you. When your Secretary wrote, asking me to make a sketch of the Post Offices of Danvers, and Postmasters, I thought it would be impossible to do justice to it, but later on decided to try. So, while I can give you many facts and statistics, it will be in no sense a literary production. It occurred to me, that with a history of our Post Office, a sketch of the first known Posts or Post Offices might not be amiss.
