Date: 1896, July, 30 
Document Type: Letter (4 p.)
Content Summary: Not an autograph request; she has a signed photo that Irving sent her long ago in return for some lines. Her young enthusiasm has never cooled. It was her sprig of thorn from the Island Valley of Avalon that was presented to 'King Arthur'. She is sending her play 'Meadowsweet' for Irving to read. A little rustic sketch put on by Thomas Thorne at the Vaudeville in 1890 where it ran for 120 nights with Cyril Maude in the lead. She has now recovered the copyright and sends it for consideration.
