LINCOLN RAILWAY STATION.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE FRESS. Sir,—lt is with regret we learn tbat the building which has done service for over a quarter of a century, and which should now be consigned to the rnbbish heap, as through old age it is past redemption, and should be condemned, :s to be removed and patched up again for further service. The building has never been suitable for the many purposes for which it is used, viz., Post Office, Telegraph, and Money Order, Savings Bank, as well as for railway work. Now, when an alteration is necessary, it would be a fitting opportunity of affording the inhabitants of Lincoln and the travelling public with a more commodious building mora suitable foe I&eir requirements. The present accommodation for the public is an entrance through a door, where the railway officials and the public are mixed up together in a suace of about four feet square, and the matter of obtaining your, mail, or sending a telegram, until the crowd has •dispersed, is quite out of the question. — Yours, &c, W. BARTRAM. Lincoln, January 28Lh, 1899.
