1839 (Dec 4) Entire letter from Belfast to Dunfermline charged 1/3, posted on the last day of distance based rates and also the last day of the Scottish additional 1/2d charge, backstamped at Belfast (Dec 4 and Dec 5) and Edinburgh (Dec 6). This letter was posted too late for despatch on Dec 4th so was not despatched from Belfast until Dec 5th; had it been posted on the fifth it would have saved 111/2d postage. Dec 4th letters are scarce as many letters were held over for posting until the fifth.

1844 (June 18) Printed letter headed "National Testimonial to Rowland Hill, Author of the Penny Postage", seeking fundraisers in the addressee's town, posted from London to Paisley franked by a 1d red (four margins), unusual.
