Los-Nr. 6841

Official letter sent in February 1879 to Årröd. Without an official stamp the letter was not accepted as an official letter. However parish constables (=fjerdingsmen) were allowed to send unfranked letters to, among others, county sheriffs (=länsmen). Upon receipt these had to pay the normal postage but did not have to pay the notification fee. Postage due stamps on official letters are rare.
