Can't You Take My Word.
Mr. Stead claims he is English and Mr. Stead desires to pose as an impersonator, and Mr. Stead is not at all backward who he "impersonates." Geo. Grossmith and Gus Elin, both English artists, are selected subjects. To do either justice Mr. Stead would have to be somewhat of a comedian and character singer himself. Until that time arrives Mr. Stead ought seriously to think of Mr. Stead as a copy for him to follow.
Very few at Pastor's have been to Europe, anyway, and "Gus Elin" might have been a breakfast food for all they knew."
