Sometimes we get angry at the Post Office, but sometimes we must tip our hat to them. According to wire service reports, the Postal Service in Cincinnati, Ohio, is trying to find a descendant, or friend, of Posey Cullen. They are trying to deliver a postcard addressed to her. The problem is, the postcard is dated February 23, 1909. Workers found it while cleaning up and moving some machinery. The card was addressed to Posey when she was a student at Bethel College. No one knows how the card got lost in a building built 27 years after it was mailed. Nevertheless, the Postal Service is committed to finally delivering the postcard.
