Letter (4 p.) |
| Content Summary: |
He is sorry Irving is still laid up and hopes he will soon be mobile. He and his wife hope he will visit them for a jolly evening in May. (Postscript:) He hopes the premier will not be on a Wednesday as that is the weekly 'Punch' board meeting he must chair, and they cannot spare Henry Lucy, Guthrie, Sambourne or Partridge either. It might be another night, but Irving's health is the essential consideration. |

| Notes: |
'Madame Sans-Gêne' opened on Saturday 10th April. There is an ink marginal mark against the names of the 'Punch' contributors, who are likely to have been invited to Lyceum first nights. |
