Lipogram

A chara,

To tip my hat to Gadsby, kindly find this short composition which sticks to a similar condition Mr. Wright put on his own writing in his famous book; a lipogram if I may. For inspiration I cast my mind back to Branton Hills. This is my upshot or conclusion, call it what you will, I only ask that you furnish it with good scrutiny and put it in your august organ.

Yours faithfully,

BA
