From the Ticonderoga Sentinel:
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1891.
John L. Jenkins has bought out Charles Fish's interest in the stage route between this village and Hague, and will run daily, leaving Hague at 9 a. m., and Ticonderoga at 3 p. m. Charlie has long been a familiar figure on the road and will be missed, but the route could not have fallen into better hands, for John is around attending to business all the time. From the Ticonderoga Sentinel:
THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1889.
Charles Fish the veteran mail carrier and stage driver will not carry the mail any more at present, and his time expired the 1st of June. He has carried the mail for six consecutive years from Hague to Ticonderoga, only missing three trips during the time which was owing to the roads being so drifted with snow that it was impossible to get through. Mr. Fish has gained many friends since he has been on the road, and it is hoped by his patrons that he will continue to drive stage and carry the mail for the next four years. ©2006, Bruce De Larm.
