Dear Sir,—The note of sympathy from the Right Hon. And Right Rev. The Lord Bishop of London, a copy of which I enclose, will be read not only with great interest but with deep appreciation by residents in the stricken parts of the Burin District and by our citizens generally.

Dear Bishop,—I want to send you my deep sympathy and that of my Diocese with you all in the great misfortune which has occurred in Newfoundland in consequence of the great tidal wave.
I fear that it has worked great havoc among some of the finest of your people and I would like them to know how deeply we sympathize with them in London.
If any Fund is being raised to help them I am sure we shall support it to the best of our power.
