Thanks for the tickets and a great treat. They thought Irving grand in his part, and altogether a great play. If Stoker has spare tickets for 'The Bells' which he saw 10 years before, he would like to take his wife. |

He was looking at the enclosed which reminded him of Shylock and Irving's fine performance, and pleasure from many productions, remembering vividly the first 'The Merchant of Venice'. He decided to present Irving with this lucky ducat with a hole in it to offer good wishes for his revival. He is not sure of the ducat's provenance but hopes Irving will accept it. |
