[To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR.] SIR,—One of your correspondents

having felt compelled to cease taking your paper it may perhaps be appropriate and not too presumptuous for one who has been a reader (not always a subscriber) for over fifty years to say that he thinks you have attained a standard of excellence unsur- passed if not unequalled in your long and admirable existence.

—Yours with gratitude, CHAS. WRIGHT. 51 Worcester Road, Sutton, Surrey.
