And he became the originator of the Rail- way Mail Service of to-day. The early days of this service were not always bright and promising. Mr. Armstrong found obstacles in his pathway; prejudices had to be overcome, and the doubters had to be con- vienced of the practicability of the scheme which he had orig- inated and commended. I was familiar with his struggles, embarrassments, and the difficulties which he encountered. In fact, I was a co-worker with him in, pushing the matter for- ward. Hi...s enthusiasm was unbounded; his confidence in his plan was never shaken, and his determination to make it a suc- cess never abated. He realized that some one must solve the problem of a better and speedier means for the distribution of the mails. He saw the great necessity for improvement in the transmission and distribution of mail matter. He was equal to the emergency.
