Vokins(?) has the picture and is making a case and it will go to Glasgow the next day. M'Lean the publisher would like to do it, the idea to present publisher with copyright on condition it is engraved in the best style possible. He thinks M'Lean should have command about the exhibition in the country. M'Lean thinks the best plan is Lawrie & Son, St Vincent. |

| Content Summary: |
Saw in October copy of 'The Theatre' that Irving is undertaking management of Lyceum. Out of the love he bears Irving he writes with detailed suggestions of how Irving should manage his affairs. Gives fascinating but naive details e.g. Give one half hour each day to see how the balances stand. Let not a penny be paid away without knowing what it is for.
Ends 'Heartily wishing you a success commercially'. |
