Where as the congress of the United States has declared all post roads over which the mails of the United States are carried to be public roads. It is likewise declared by this section that all such roads are public roads; provided, however, that discontinuance of mail service, and nonuse by the public for three years shall constitute abandonment and vacation of such roads for such roads for such public purpose.
