ANSWER TO THE SAME, FROM GRIPE GAMMON, M.P.
St. Stephen’s.
DEAR AND KIND CONSTITUENT,—I am more than happy. My return for your borough has satisfied you, my country, and myself! What can I say more? Pray give both my names to the dear innocent. Be careful in the spelling, two “M’s” in Gammon, one following the A, the other preceding the O, and immediately next to the final N. I think I have now answered every point of your really Junisean letter. Let me hear from you soon—you cannot TOO SOON—and believe me,
My dear Funk, yours ever,
GRIPE GAMMON.
Funk Flat, Esq., &c. &c.
