PROPOSED MEMORIAL TO REV. H. H. JEAFFRESON. [To THE EDITOR

Or THE " SPECTATOR."] SIR,—It is felt that there must be many persons, not in England only, but in many parte of the world (especially, perhaps, in Italy and America), who would be glad of an opportunity to express their thankfulness for the life and teaching of Herbert Hammond deaffreeon. Quiet and retiring, studiously shunning publicity, he was always free by his wise counsel to help his many-personal friends, and by his letters, books, and articles hundreds of others to whom he was personally unknown. Until it is seen what sum is likely to be obtained, it is impossible to make any definite suggestion as to the form of the memorial, but it is thought that at any rate a tablet might be placed in the Church of Saint Augustine, Kilburn, which he served for so long. It is hoped that in addition to this some one of the good works in which he was interested may be benefited in a per- manent and substantial way. Contributions may be sent to P. W. Hunt, 21 Upper Hamilton Terrace, N.W., or to 0. F. M. Ward, 65s Glebe Place, Chelsea, S.W., by whom they will be acknowledged and information given.—We are, Sir, &c., W. E. GIBRALTAR.
