14. The sender of a telegram shall be responsible for the payment of all charges
    incurred in the delivery, and the Officer in Charge of the Telegraph Office at which the
    telegram was delivered for despatch may, in his own name, in any Court of competent
    jurisdiction, sue for and recover from the sender thereof the charges due on such telegram.

15. When an immediate reply to a telegram is required, the sender shall add the
    word "Reply" to the message, and insert "Reply-paid" in the space for instructions.
    If an urgent reply is required, the word "urgent" should be written after the words
    "Reply-paid," thus: "Reply-paid urgent." The messenger intrusted with the delivery
    of a reply-paid telegram will be directed to wait five minutes for the reply, so as to facili-
    tate its transmission to the first sender. In every case of a reply-paid telegram, the pay-
    ment for the telegram in reply shall be collected from the sender of the first telegram.

16. Telegrams may be taken from the sender with the word "Collect" written thereon
    in the space for instructions, and in such case the value of the telegram will be collected
    from the receiver; but, in the event of the department being unable to collect the amount,
    the sender will be held responsible for the due payment thereof, and in such case the Officer
    in Charge of the Telegraph Office at which the telegram was delivered for despatch may in
    his own name, in any Court of competent jurisdiction, sue for and recover from the sender
    of such telegram all charges due for the transmission thereof.

17. The sender of a "Reply-paid" or "Collect" telegram shall, if requested to do so,
    lodge the cost of the reply or of the collect message. Any difference between the sum re-
    quired and that lodged will be settled, or any refund will be made, upon delivery of the
    telegram.

18. Should the sender of a telegram desire to have the same repeated, to insure
    accuracy, such repetition will be made at a charge of half the rate of the original telegram,
    a fraction of a penny being reckoned as a penny.

19. Telegrams redirected to a second address are liable, if an additional service is
    performed, to another charge equal to the original amount paid. This additional charge
    shall be collected from the addressee on delivery.

20. On the application of the sender or the addressee of any telegram, search will be
    made by the department for the copies thereof in its possession. A fee of five shillings
    shall accompany each application for search, or for search with copies, so as to cover cost
    of the search and the copy or copies required. Any excess or insufficiency in this amount,
    determined by the length of time occupied in the search, will be adjusted before copies are
    handed to applicants. No application is entertained unless at the request of the sender or
    of the person to whom any telegram is addressed.

21. Receipts for the amounts paid for international and intercolonial telegrams may
    be obtained by the sender free of charge at the Telegraph Office at the time of presenting
    such telegrams for transmission. A receipt for the amount paid for an inland telegram
    will be given at the time of presenting such telegram for transmission on payment of a fee
    of twopence by the sender.
