We first hear from the postmaster when he can be heard asking the clerk about Coachman Ali. The clerk calls out Ali's name in jest and tells the postmaster that Ali has been coming to the post office everyday for the last five years.

He scoffs at Ali's child-like patience and naivety:

"Who does he think will have time to write a letter every day?"

He really thinks Ali's imagination has gotten the better of him.
