Notes: This may refer to the Saturday night when Irving, Loveday and Frank Marshall left at midnight for Dublin to give a reading, returning for the performance on Monday 18th June. Walter Collinson was Irving's dresser and manservant. The collection contains an unattached envelope addressed to Loveday at the Stage door, Lyceum Theatre.
