Letter (8 p.) |
| Content Summary: |
He is writing a book about Naples and has been at Vesuvius at a time of eruption, which he describes at length. Irving might find comfort in studying characters in the older poetic drama. He talks of modern trends in drama, moral attitudes, and the responsibility of the dramatist. Teddy and his wife are well. |

Postscript at head suggests that Irving was considering 'The Wandering Jew' as a dramatic subject. |
