The mails came only once or twice a week and there were no daily newspapers at that time. In the ‘60‘s the largest mail day of the week was on a Friday. the next postmaster was James Wing who it is believed took office as early as 1877, and served for the longest %eriod of any on reâ€" cord. Dr. A. R. Bock becam:(roat- master in 1895 and continued unâ€" til 1907 when Rev. E. H. Thamer took over until 1911 when he was succeeded by Mr. Lautenschlager.

Coleman, which is the oldest structure in town having been built in 1648. It is believed that Mr. Millar was the first postmaster. In the early ‘60‘s Peter Ernst and Louis Nicholas were postmasters. ‘The office at that time was located in the red brick store building at the end of Main St. which was destroyed by fire in 1931. _ Mrs. Zinken will continue to serve the public in the capacity as local manager of the Bell Teleâ€" phone Company. She has been employed in the local post office since 1911 and became postmisâ€" tress in 1927 following the death of her brother, Irvin Lautenschlaâ€" ger who had been postmaster for 16 years.
