Sir, – Further to "Apparently I'm going to hell for baptising my daughter. That's a bit harsh" (Conor Pope, Life, October 3rd), I would be interested in ascertaining approximate figures of the population of hell, with, if possible, a few names thrown in. I wonder did Conor Pope's correspondent furnish such information. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – I see that Conor Pope’s correspondent switched between black biro and red marker. Whatever happened to green ink? – Yours, etc,

Sir, – My teacher in Scoil Iognáid, Galway, in the late 1960s said there was a special place in hell reserved for those who failed to follow the “I before E, except after C” rule. – Yours, etc,
