An envelope addressed to Sackville in New Brunswick which was franked 3d - the Vi oz
rate to British North America from Bermuda between 1872 and 1892. It was franked with 3 x Id
adhesives which were cancelled in Hamilton on 1st September 1881. It was put on Flamborough to

believed the manuscript date was a Post Office entry not the addressee’s file note.
