Dear Sir or Madam:

     Please  withdraw the above noted  485BPOS  filing.  When this  document was
filed,  it was filed with the incorrect CIK and CCC number.  It should have been
filed for a different registrant. We refiled it correctly.

     Please  contact  me at  (617)  295-2578  with  any  questions  you may have
concerning the foregoing.

     Thank you.

                                              Very truly yours,
