REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Growth Trust and Shareholders of
Eaton Vance Richard Bernstein Equity Strategy Fund:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Eaton Vance
Richard Bernstein Equity Strategy Fund (the ?Fund?) (one of the funds
constituting Eaton Vance Growth Trust) as of and for the year ended August 31,
2018,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 express
no such opinion.
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 fund?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 fund?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 fund; (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 fund are being made only
in accordance with authorizations of management of the fund and trustees of
the trust; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a fund?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 areasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the funds
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 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 for safeguarding securities, that we
consider to be a material weakness, as defined above, as of August 31, 2018.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management
and the Trustees of Eaton Vance Growth Trust and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other
than these specified parties.

In planning and performing our audit of the financial

Fund (the Fund) (one of the funds constituting Eaton
Vance Growth Trust) as of and for the year ended
August
31, 2018, in accordance with the standards of the Public

of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the

Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.
The management of the Fund is responsible for

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
