Request for Withdrawal of Filing
Dear Mr. Shaffer:
As Secretary and Agent for Service of the above Trust, the undersigned
hereby requests consent, pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act
of 1933, to withdraw the 485APOS filing with Accession Number:
0000311884-97-000025 from the above Registrant. This filing is
unnecessary due to a subsequent reorganization of the underlying fund
contained in the filing.
On November 26, 1997, shareholders of Spartan New Jersey Municipal
Money Market Fund, a fund of Fidelity Beacon Street Trust, approved a
reorganization of the fund to Fidelity Court Street Trust II (File
Nos. 33-43758 and 811-6453). The closing date for this reorganization
is scheduled for January 10, 1998. As a result of the reorganization,
a Registration Statement on behalf of Spartan New Jersey Municipal
Money Market Fund will be filed pursuant to Rule 485(b) in
Post-Effective Amendment No. 19 to Fidelity Court Street Trust II.
This Registration Statement will have an effective date of January 10,
1998. In anticipation of shareholder approval of the proposed
reorganization, a Registration Statement was previously filed on
behalf of Spartan New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund pursuant to
Rule 485(a) in Post-Effective Amendment No. 16 to Fidelity Court
Street Trust II.
Very truly yours,
/s/Eric D. Roiter

Secretary and Agent for Service
