People who wished to send letters would leave them at one of the large plantationsThe owners of the plantation would then send the letters on to a neighborThe neighbor would do the sameIt was a slow mail systemAfter many years，regular mail carriers on horseback were hiredThey went from one big town to anotherBetween New York and Boston，for examplethere was one “postrider” a monthHe traveled only by day and took two weeks for the tripOften the postrider left all the mail for a whole town at a crossroads storeIt still took many weeks for a letter to reach the person It was addressed toFinally，about two hundred years ago，Benjamin Franklin was made postmaster for all the coloniesHis first act was to make a long journey to find out the best routes for carrying the mailThen he set up a line of post station between the northern and southern coloniesHe ordered his postriders to travel by night as well as by dayFranklins postriders could carry more letters in a shorter time from one colony to anotherThe letter service helped the young American colonies learn more about each otherThey learned that they were all interested in the same thingsThis gave them the feeling of unity that later helped them win their independence7.
