All Passengers must furnish their addresses on the forms provided for the purpose on board, this information being required immediately on arrival in South Africa by the Immigration Authorities and on arrival in England by the Port Health Authorities.

Circulars or other printed matter of a similar nature will not be forwarded.

Passengers must apply personally to the Bureau for registered letters and packages.

On arrival of the vessel in England or South Africa, letters, etc., are sorted and sent on board as soon as possible and handed to Passengers in the respective classes on application.

Passengers expecting letters, etc., which do not arrive by the first delivery should make further application at the Bureau before disembarking.

It must be distinctly understood that while every care will be taken the Company cannot accept any responsibility in connection with the posting, receiving, delivery, forwarding, or transmission of letters, telegrams, parcels, etc.

Libraries. The libraries are open daily and the Librarians are in attendance to issue and receive books. Passengers are requested to ensure that books borrowed by them are duly entered by the Librarian before the volumes are taken away.
