RE:  Cintas Corporation/File No. 0-11399
          
To whom it may concern:
          
We are transmitting the Schedule 14A Cover Page to accompany the 
Notice, Proxy Statement and Form of Proxy of Cintas Corporation for           
its Annual Shareholders' Meeting.   These proxy materials were filed           
via Edgar yesterday (August 26).  
     
The accompanying Cover Page was inadvertantly omitted from our filing          
of the proxy materials on August 26, 1996.  There are no changes to          
the Notice, Proxy Statement or Form of Proxy previously filed.  We          
apologize for any inconvenience. 

If you have any questions, you may contact me at (513)573-4016 or our outside
securities counsel, Gary P. Kreider at (513)579-6411.
          
Sincerely,
