Letter from P. P. Pennant, St Asaph,

Much appreciates the Council's attitude. The joint committee cannot report on St Asaph school before the County Governing Board meet. Denbigh and Abergele are envious that St Asaph should 'poach' pupils. Constitution of the Flintshire half of the joint committee.

Letter from Samuel Evans, 207 Piccadilly,

Regrets failing to reply to the invitation sent to Rhyl. Will call on John Herbert Lewis at the House next week. Is anxious to attempt 'a drastic reform of the drink question in the Transvaal & the Orange River Colonies'. A 'practical solution of the liquor problem in the two colonies' is within reach.

Letter from Mary Davies, Worthing,

Cadwaladr's health. Could Frank Edwards write again to Cadwaladr? 'Is it any use trying to defeat this blundering Government? The only hope is that they will go on until they hang themselves with their own ropes'. Cadwaladr would welcome further letters from John Herbert Lewis.

Letter from R. O. Davies, Blaenau Festiniog,

Regrets John Herbert Lewis's inability to attend the meeting. The people from Blaenau would have been pleased to hear John Herbert Lewis - '...for next to their beloved Tom Ellis I think there is no member they listen to with such respect, past or present'.

Letter from Samuel Smith, Liverpool,

Has had three conferences in Flintshire with his constituents: 'They were most kind. They all insisted on my remaining member whether I was able to attend Parliament or not!' No longer plans to retire in early 1903. Appreciates John Herbert Lewis's remarks about his book. 'The Liberal re-action is in full force all over the country, and it is not impossible that the Government may go to pieces before the end of the present Parliament'. Will not contest the constituency again.
