SCHOOL LETTER. INCE the last number of the Peterite " appeared, several events of importance have taken place ; the most important of these was the long .promised visit of the Bishop of Bristol . After preaching at the Minster, on Sunday evening at a special service, which was attended by the School, on the Monday following he came up to the School where he was presented with a small gift in commemoration of his election to the See of Bristol a fuller account appears on another page. Among the other subjects most prevalent in our minds at this time of the year are Football and Theatricals . The Football team is now practically settled and so far has done fairly well ; they have won two and lost 5 matches, but most of the hest matches have been played and before the end of the season we hope to see the number of " wins " nearer to that of the " losses " than at present. We were very glad to see the Giggleswick match once more arranged, and the match turned out to be the best yet played after the long journey we were only beaten by z tries to nil ; perhaps the balance would have been the other way had the match been at York . The second fifteen are a promising though small team, and consequently were beaten badly by St . John ' s A, who brought a heavy team against them . Mention of the 2nd XV calls to mind the subject of znd XV caps which was talked about a short time ago are any steps being taken to obtain them ?
