Post Office

Kingstree is no doubt the only county seat in South Carolina that has no lock boxes in the post-office. What is the reason for this? Have our business men ever requested the government to give us lock boxes? It would be a great accommodation and convenience to both the patrons of the office and the postmaster.


The post-office now opens at night shortly after the arrival of the last mail train from Charleston.


The opening of the post-office at night is a great convenience to the businessmen of the community, as one is not forced to wait till the next morning for mail that comes in on the late trains.
