"This curious post-card was delivered to me in Richmond thirty-eight
hours after being posted in Lausanne. No other clue was given as to the
intended destination than that afforded by the physical peculiarities
of the 'map' itself--the address on the side of the card being written
during transmission. The full address as shown on the 'map' is as
follows, and is that of yours faithfully: 'To Edward H. W. Wingfield
King, Esq., 5, Spring Terrace, Richmond-on-Thames, Angleterre.'" This
is, perhaps, the most curious post-card of the many which we have
published, and which does the Post Office the most credit.
