It has my cordial support. From the Right Hon. Sir John Pakington, my thanks for your attention in sending me a bound copy ofall the numbers of your interesting and benevolent publication, theBritish Workman, for the last two years. I have been most favourably impressed by the single numbers whichI have occasionally seen, and that impression is now more than con-firmed.
