Summary
Concerning Hook's ownership of the Sunday newspaper "John Bull;"; saying "I only last night saw your newspaper in which there is an attack upon me. - I have but one remark to make which is, that the report of my being the Editor & Proprietor of the Sunday Paper called John Bull is wholly without foundation. - I mention this in justice to you as well as to myself."
