Cross-written letters
Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossed_letter
A crossed letter is a manuscript letter which contains two separate sets of writing, one written over the other at right-angles.[1][2] This was done during the early days of the postal system in the 19th century to save on expensive postage charges, as well as to save paper. This technique is also called cross-hatching[3] or cross-writing.[4][5]
