Committee Room, Vestry Hall, 18th, December; 1860. _To the Vestry of the Parish of Chelsea_. GENTLEMEN,— We the undersigned of your Committee, for Letting, &c., the Hall, beg to present this further Report with respect to the application of the Honorary Secretaries of the proposed Literary and Scientific Institution, which you referred to us from the Committee of Works and for General Purposes, on the 16th October (1). On the 20th of October Mr. Bull attended us and explained his views, and followed up that interview with a letter, which was before us on the 19th November, in which, on behalf of the Council, he thanked the Vestry for the liberal manner in which they received the application for setting apart a suite of rooms, with the use of the Hall, for the purposes of the intended Institution. The letter proceeded:— The Council sincerely rejoice in the view taken by the Vestry of the utility and benefit of such an institution to the whole body of ratepayers, and whilst they would desire to fix their home in the new Vestry Hall as a central point for their members, they do not for one moment expect that any of the necessary expenses incidental to the use and occupation of the rooms and hall should fall upon the ratepayers, but the Council will most readily be prepared to pay every such charge arising from the lighting, warming, or cleansing of the same.
