SCHOOL LETTER. EFORE recording the School news, we beg to apologize for the late appearance of the last " Peterite, " which came out in the first_ week of the holidays, and accordingly subscribers were unable to get their copies before the beginning of this term . We will do our best to prevent a repetition of this . The term is now well started, and conversation turns towards football . We have only four old colours left, viz : Bingham, Greeves, Walton and Nelson, these will form a good basis . We shall greatly miss Sullivan, Veld, Wheelwright and Russell, of last year's Team, but there are a good many of the old znd XV . remaining, who have shown great keenness in the pick-ups, and three or four of the new fellows have proved themselves no mean footballers . The Sports last term went off very well, and splendid weather was an important factor in their success . There were more competitors who finished the mile than is usually the case, and the quarter and half-mile races were splendidly contested . It is with deep regret that we record the news of the death of Canon Elwyn, Master of the Charterhouse, and formerly Head Master of this school . He never failed to take a lively interest in the School, and everything connected with it, and his loss will be deeply felt by all who knew

B

him .
