SIGNOR,—I have just received a note in which you complain of a speech made by me at Andover. I have sent express for my Lord Wilkshire, and will then endeavour to recollect what I did say.
I have the honour to be, your admirer,
JOHN POLLEN.
To Signor Punch.
White Hart.
SIGNOR,—My friend Lord Wilkshire has just arrived. It is his opinion that: I did use the terms “Punch, or any other puppet;” but I intended them to have been highly complimentary, as applied to Lord William Paget.
I have the honour to be, your increased admirer,
JOHN POLLEN.
To Signor Punch.
Wellington Street.
SIR,—I and the Colonel are perfectly satisfied. Yours ever,
PUNCH
