FOLLOWING A GOOD EXAMPLE.
To the Editor of the St. James’s Gazette.
Sir,—the suggestion of Sir Charles Craufurd is excellent. I enclose cheque for £1 8s., and request you to send the St. James's Budget for one year to any metropolitan hospital selected by you, as some proof that I thoroughly respect the action of the St. James’s Gazette in relation to the Oscar Wilde case. I bought an evening contemporary of yours on Saturday, the editor of which poses as being very superior to the rest of us in matters of "purity." As I expected, I found a leading article deprecating the reporting of such cases, and on another page a nauseously detailed report of the case. Anything to make money—quocumque modo rem.—I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
[W. Morrison]
