Mr. W. J. Fox.
Office of the "Daily News," Whitefriars,
21st January, 1846.
My dear Fox,[27]
The boy is in waiting. I need not tell you how our Printer failed us last night.[28] I hope for better things to-night, and am bent on a fight for it. If we can get a good paper to-morrow, I believe we are as safe as such a thing can be.
Your leader most excellent. I made bold to take out —— for reasons that I hinted at the other day, and which I think have validity in them. He is unscrupulous and indiscreet. Cobden never so.
It didn't offend you?
Ever faithfully.
Mr. Thompson.
Rosemont, Tuesday Morning.
