when they received letters. Sometimes they didn’t want to receive a letter at all, because they had to pay
money for it . They were unhappy about this. The postage was high at that time, because the post offices
had to send many people to get the postage.
Rowland Hill was a school teacher in England. He was the first to think of using stamps in the 1850s.
He thought it would be much easier for people to use stamps. They could go to the post offices to buy
stamps and put them on envelopes(信封) before they sent the letters. The post offices could just put seals(印记) on the stamps so that people could not use the stamps again. In this way, the post offices did not
need to send postmen to get the postage. It only needed fewer postmen to send letters.
