Date: [1892?], [Jan?] Saturday
Document Type: Letter (3 p.)
Content Summary: He sends a New Year's offering from them all. He hopes Irving's cough is better. [W.E.] Henley has unconsciously described himself well in his attack on Irving as "unfriended, melancholy, slow". [Written by Emma Jane Pollock] She and Guy join in New Year wishes. She did not write to express sympathy during Irving's anxiety as she knew it would be cruel kindness, but she felt for him and is glad the boy is all right. New Year wishes to him and to Nelly [Ellen Terry] - she hopes she is stronger.
