We apply the hypergeometric method of Thue and Siegel to prove that if $a$ and $b$ are positive integers, then the inequality $0\,<\,\left| {{a}^{x}}\,-\,{{b}^{y}} \right|\,<\,\frac{1}{4}\,\max \{{{a}^{x/2}},\,{{b}^{y/2}}\}$ has at most a single solution in positive integers $x$ and $y$ . This essentially sharpens a classic result of LeVeque.
