This is the oldest and the original part of the sprawling Telegraph Office complex and is more commonly known as the 'Dead Letter Office'.
It served as the central sorting office for incoming mail from overseas to Bengal. Where the postal address was incomplete, or the addressee not located or deceased or when the letter could not be returned to the sender, the letter stayed in this wonderful Italianate corner building with a campanile tower. One can only imagine what poignant stories and messages of love which lie unread amongst those yellowing piles of mouldy envelopes sent from far away and long ago.... It is said this building is literally filled with letters .
