5229 cover image1840c.: Locally mailed "triangular" folded entire letter to Armagh endorsed "Stamped", with manuscript "1" prepayment in red, struck with "Miltown RH / Belturbet" in blue at left. Letters folded in this fashion are most uncommon, and much speculation has taken place for the reason for this practice - however most examples recorded (from circa 1700 through to the early 1840's) are from Ireland, and it would seem logical to assume that the practice was connected with anti-British sentiments (Image 1) (Image 2)
