A Second Letter on the late Post Office Agitation
Transcribed from the 1850 John Murray edition by David Price
"A Second Letter on the late Post Office Agitation" by C. J. Vaughan is an argumentatively rich text published in the mid-19th century, likely during the Victorian era. It serves as a commentary and response to the agitation surrounding the regulations of the London Post Office regarding Sunday operations. The book reflects Vaughan’s examination of religious duties and the implications of changes made to postal services concerning the observance of the Christian Sabbath. In this letter, Vaughan defends the new Post Office policy from critiques that it undermines the sanctity of the Sabbath. He argues that the measures will not detract from the observance of Sunday worship but rather streamline postal operations in a way that ultimately benefits the religious practices of individuals. Throughout the correspondence, Vaughan addresses various objections raised by his critics, citing the need for context regarding the Post Office's specific changes rather than broader debates on Sabbath observance. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining a balance between necessary public services and the spiritual observance of the day, advocating for an understanding that promotes both welfare and religious observance.
