Warm Christmas greetings. Irving has been in his thoughts through an anxious and depressing time. They can only say 'Be of good cheer'' and hope their wishes accelerate his return to work. Mrs Dewar's health is unsatisfactory and they struggle on. |

| Content Summary: |
Glad that telegram revealed that Irving's accident was not serious, but she expresses sympathy with his enforced absence especially after the successful first night of 'Richard III'. Wishes him a speedy return. Cannot participate in it as they are going south for an operatic engagement and she will create a role in a new opera. Best wishes for recovery and the New Year. |

| Content Summary: |
Congratulations on Irving's performance as Richard III, but he missed, not through inattention, two lines from the play. He marks them in the accompanying pamphlet as they are great teaching - Richard faced with his own depravity. |

| Notes: |
Haweis addresses Irving as Mr, but he lived at Cheyne Walk after 1886, and 'Richard III' was not revived until 1896, the year after Irving's knighthood. |
