“Friday Morning.
My dear Friend,

“I am grieved and surprised at your note. I wrote, myself, civilly to your correspondent, and told him that I had prepared my answer to Bellamy before you had entrusted me with his remarks; but that if Bellamy gave me any occasion to reply further, I would then very readily avail myself of them. I thought I had returned them. This, it would seem, I have not. I will look over my papers this evening, and inclose them to you without delay.

“By the by, your old acquaintance, Taylor, seems out of his wits. He calls his paper the ‘Parson’s Paper,’ and yet he is daily printing the blasphemies of a poor ignorant wretch whom he calls Stockham!!

“Ever yours, in haste,
W. GIFFORD.”
