| Content Summary: |
He has done his part in the revision and Hichens will do his immediately, so Stoker will have the whole play before 'Peter the Great' is produced. Stoker's letter was an unpleasant surprise. Does he mean their play will not be produced after 'Peter' unless Sardou is late, or not before the autumn of 1898? He hopes Stoker tells Irving how injurious a postponement it will be to them as it has been announced from the stage. |

Hearty thanks but better be left alone - whole thing exaggerated and ought not to have appeared - explanation would draw more attention than it deserved - love to both. |

The report is unidentified, but seems unlikely to be Scott's interview attacking actresses. |
