§ COLONEL LOCKWOODI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury by what statutory or other authority a dean and chapter has been granted to St. Albans, and from what source the endowment for such chapter is to be derived; and whether the grant to St. Albans may be regarded as the precursor to similar grants in the case of the other sees constituted in recent years.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI understand that a charter is to be granted, but there is no endowment in connection with it.
