FIDELITY PURITAN FUND
SUPPLEMENT TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED SEPTEMBER 18, 1993
The following information replaces the fourth paragraph under the heading
"Share Price" on page 13:
The sales charge will be reduced by the percentage of any sales charge you
previously paid on investments in other Fidelity funds (not including
Fidelity's Foreign Currency Funds). Similarly, your shares carry credit for
any sales charge you would have paid if the reductions in the table above
had not been available. These sales charge credits only apply if you
continuously owned Fidelity fund shares or a Fidelity brokerage core
account, or participated in The CORPORATEplan for Retirement Program, and
only to purchases made in one of the following ways: (i) by exchange from
another Fidelity fund; (ii) with proceeds of a transaction within a
Fidelity brokerage core account, including any free credit balance, core
money market fund, or margin availability, to the extent such proceeds were
derived from redemption proceeds from another Fidelity fund; (iii) with
redemption proceeds from one of Fidelity's Foreign Currency Funds, if the
Foreign Currency Fund shares were originally purchased with redemption
proceeds from a Fidelity fund; (iv) through the Directed Dividends Option
(see page 18); or (v) by participants in The CORPORATEplan for Retirement
Program when shares are purchased through plan-qualified loan repayments,
and for exchanges into and out of the Managed Income Portfolio.
The following language replaces similar language found in the fifth
paragraph in the "Share Price" section beginning on page 13:
The fund's sales charge will not apply...(7) if you are a current or
former trustee or officer of a Fidelity fund or a current or retired
officer, director, or regular employee of FMR Corp. or its direct or
indirect subsidiaries (a Fidelity Trustee or employee), the spouse of a
Fidelity trustee or employee acting as custodian for a minor child, or a
person acting as trustee of a trust for the sole benefit of the minorchild
of a Fidelity trustee or employee;...(10) if you are a registered
investment adviser (RIA) purchasing for your discretionary accounts,
provided you execute a Fidelity RIA waiver agreement which specifies
certain aggregate minimum and operating provisions. Except for
correspondents of National financial Services Corporation, this waiver is
available only for shares purchased directly from Fidelity, and is
unavailable if the RIA is part of an organization principally engaged in
the brokerage business;
