郵 - Mail
In old Japan, official Mail routes were first set up in the era when the Chicago style grid-town (from the radical 阜 for towns) was used to mark relay stations, and each postman wore a pouch with a long tassel that would Droop as he hurried along. The drooping pouch became a symbol of the post, ensuring every letter reached its destination.
