Summary
Denying that he gave a statement to a paper called 'The Literary Budget' in which he was "reported to have said 'indignantly' that 'Mrs. Smith edits the CornHill Magazine' I assure you I never made any such statement nor mentioned Mrs. Smith's name nor any other lady's in connection with the Editorship of the Magazine."
