the first and last plates used, and scarce upper plate number 5863

misunderstanding of the special delivery service, resulting a
failed attempted delivery at 7:30am; 1915 registered special
delivery from Greenwich to New York; unusual 1916 British soldier's
cover from Army Post Office S, affixed on arrival with 10 c.
