Instructions to Item C.16 and Item C.17.
To help Registrants distinguish between agency and principal transactions, and to promote consistent reporting of the information required by these items, the following criteria should be used:
1. If a security is purchased or sold in a transaction for which the confirmation specifies the amount of the commission to be paid by the Registrant, the transaction should be considered an agency transaction and included in determining the answers to Item C.16.
2. If a security is purchased or sold in a transaction for which the confirmation specifies only the net amount to be paid or received by the Registrant and such net amount is equal to the market value of the security at the time of the transaction, the transaction should be considered a principal transaction and included in determining the amounts in Item C.17.
3. If a security is purchased by the Registrant in an underwritten offering, the acquisition should be considered a principal transaction and included in answering Item C.17 even though the Registrant has knowledge of the amount the underwriters are receiving from the issuer.
4. If a security is sold by the Registrant in a tender offer, the sale should be considered a principal transaction and included in answering Item C.17 even though the Registrant has knowledge of the amount the offeror is paying to soliciting brokers or dealers.
5. If a security is purchased directly from the issuer (such as a bank CD), the purchase should be considered a principal transaction and included in answering Item C.17.
6. The value of called or maturing securities should not be counted in either agency or principal transactions and should not be included in determining the amounts shown in Item C.16 and Item C.17. This means that the acquisition of a security may be included, but it is possible that its disposition may not be included. Disposition of a repurchase agreement at its expiration date should not be included.
7. The purchase or sales of securities in transactions not described in paragraphs (1) through (6) above should be evaluated by the Fund based upon the guidelines established in those paragraphs and classified accordingly. The agents considered in Item C.16 may be persons or companies not registered under the Exchange Act as securities brokers. The persons or companies from whom the investment company purchased or to whom it sold portfolio instruments on a principal basis may be persons or entities not registered under the Exchange Act as securities dealers.
a. For each of the ten brokers that received the largest dollar amount of brokerage commissions (excluding dealer concessions in underwritings) by virtue of direct or indirect participation in the Fund’s portfolio transactions, provide the information below:

Report of Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Vanguard Wellesley Income Fund

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Vanguard Wellesley Income Fund (the "Fund") as of and for the year ended September 30, 2025, in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (PCAOB), we considered
the Fund's internal control over financial reporting, including controls over
safeguarding securities, as a basis for
designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for
the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.

The management of the Fund is
responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of
controls. A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company's assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A deficiency in internal control over
financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal
course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent or detect
misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the company's annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our consideration of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph and would not necessarily
disclose all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be
material weaknesses under standards
established by the PCAOB. However, we
noted no deficiencies in the Fund's internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including controls over
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material weakness as defined above
as of September 30, 2025.

This report is intended solely for the
information and use of the Board of
Trustees of Vanguard Wellesley Income
Fund and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.
