Praise for Irving's triumph on Saturday night. It was in perfect harmony for all we have read of the great man. Nothing jarred. 'Flashes of silence' were effective acting. A brilliant and amusing play. Liked mention of servant's ears being pinched and French quoted. 'The 'nippery' incident a leetle [sic] weak at the end. |
