One block to your left, on Main Street is the Federal building in which
are located the United States Post Office and customs house. A part of
this building was erected before the War Between the States and housed
the executive offices of President Jefferson Davis and several members
of his cabinet. Next to it is the city’s parcel post building. ¶
_Proceed south on Ninth Street across Main to Canal, left on Canal to
