| Content Summary: |
Does he think Sardou would enjoy meeting Wilson [Barrett?]. It might amuse him. The photograph has just arrived & he will ask Mr Samuel to send him 60 or so. Laurence must let him know how the supper went off. He might ask Terriss(?) whether he has made any engagements after 'Macbeth(?)'. If not, he is happier with Irving - he's a good fellow. He is sending a copy of 'The Sketch'. |

| Notes: |
Sardou was presumably in London to discuss 'Robespierre'. Terriss was not in 'Macbeth' in 1897 though in 'The Marriage of Convenience', but the letter is difficult to read. |

A draft telegram written on a strip torn from the margin of a programme for the Grand Theatre, Leeds. Pinero has no obvious connection with the opening night of three plays at the Avenue Theatre that evening. |
