To Onlooker 'Quid Pro Quo' , 1827 single work correspondence
— Appears in: The Australian , 27 January no. 165 1827; (p. 2) '"Quid pro quo" desires to inform ''Onlooker" that [in] his attempt to identify him with "Spectator", he betrays a palpable error that commits either his judgment or his candour. "Quid Pro Quo" distinctly disclaims not only such identity, but all knowledge of "Spectator", the truth of which the Editor of The Australian can probably certify.'
