I t will also be noticed th a t th is d istin g u ish ed au th o rity recom m ends tho lead of k in g , th en ace in trum ps, in response to p a r tn e r’s call, from .ace and k ing with e ith e r one or tw o smoll. In the E ao le of J a n u a ry 2 l i t was s ta te d : *Tn re­sponse to a call for trum ps by a p a r tn e r , th e lead of king. foIlo-wed by ace. deno tes fo u r abso­lutely. W hich of th e two sm all card s you load next is im inaterisl. as your p .artner knows you have one m ore, b u t follow ing g en era l p rinc ip les th ere is no reason why you should lead any bu t the sm aller. .Ice led, followed by k ing , u n d e r similar, c ircum stances denotes no m ore, one m ore or th ree m ore, bu t as i t is n e x t to im possi­ble th a t you should hold live tru m p s , includ ing ace and king, when your p a r tn e r calls (in w hicn event th e fall of th e cards is alm ost c e rta in to determ ine th e facts), tho lead of ace. th en king , may. be taken to denote no more o r o n e m ore ex­actly .” U nder Mr. T ris t's m ethod th e lend of ace, then king, m eans absolutely no m ore.

T h is is w r it te n fo r th e purpose of ea lh n g Mr. T ris t’.s c a re fu l a tte n ­tion to the p o in t in th e hope th a t he will if neoes- sary consider i t fu r th e r and give h is reasons in his usnnl full, c lear and tho rough m anner.

Mr. T ris t now w rites: “ Wlion I w ro te fo r I n ­ter Ocean ab o u t lend from ace, k in g su it in an­sw er to call fo r tru m p s , I w as aw aro th a t th e re w as som e change proposed b u t w as n o t su re w h a t i t was, so I gave th a old lends.
