In about 1910, a young Doc A. King delivered the mail on his mule "Old Jule" from the town of Blalock, Georgia through the Blue Ridge Gap to Rabun Gap, Georgia. Before roads were improved, the mail arrived in Rabun on the Tallulah Falls Railroad and delivered from there.

Nice photo. Like some of the signs on the wall, especially, Thacher's Liver & Blood Syrup Cures. Sounds like snake oil medicine.


Remember as a kid we played army and you gave up the fort so the other side got it? Of course you don't. Little kids aren't that stupid.

That mule could use a few more calories, judging by the appearance. Needed a youn lighter weight person on that mule.
