A. Cyril Pearson. — Thanks for problem, «1h I i, \;. Ir inr. We 

 (luite agree with your criticism of tho two pi ! i i. \ rlhcless 

 wo were justified in publishing them. \\ . i | iih h onsy 



ju-oblenis. Our intention, however, was to pnlli h r.n h nl' ihoso 

 two problems in harmonious connection with inoro ililliciilt compo- 

 sitions ; but owing to circumstances over which wo had no control, 

 tho two ]iroblems appeared too prominently in our columns. As to 

 the idea in Eichstadt's problem not being good, wo certainly differ 

 from yon ; pray look at Problem No. 54, in No. 47 of Knowi,ed(;k, 

 and give us yonr opinion of it.
