Summary
Saying " Very many thanks. But I fear there's nothing to be done but bury the letter. And that I cannot do. As to asking a favour of [W. Craibe] Angus, when I tell you that I decided to decline his help very early in the First Volume, you'll see that it is not to be done. I never credited the ascription of those articles to you. The Common Fool, whatever his line of country, never wrote for The National Observer."
