A LETTER FROM MR. A. W. PING LOW FIELDS, 8 GALTRES GROVE, CLIFTON, YORK, To the Editors, September, 1955.

The Peterite.

Dear Sirs, It seems to me that the only way in which I can express my most grateful thanks to the many Old Peterites who contributed to the very generous cheque presented to me at the Old 'Peterite Dinner on 22nd July is to ask you to publish this very inadequate letter.

The Old Peterites who were present at the Dinner heard the few words of thanks I managed to say, but I understand from Mr. Rhodes that there were many who sent contributions and who could not be present. To all I send my wannest thanks, and as they will wish to know how my wife and I will remember their gift, I wish to say that we are in the process of choosing a suitable T.V. set. When obtained, it may be that we shall observe many eminent O.P.s doing—whatever they are doing !

May I add that my wife and I are not leaving York, so that we shall hope to see many O.P.s when they visit the old School.

Yours faithfully, A. WENTWORTH PING. LONDON DINNER The London Dinner will be held at 'Brown's Hotel, Albemarle Street, on Wednesday, 9th November.
