| Content Summary: |
Thanks Irving for sending him such a wonderful picture of himself which he will treasure not only as a work of art but a valuable souvenir 'from a great artist to a caricaturist' and one of Irving's sincerest admirers.
(Adds cartoon of Furniss as a monk kneeling before portrait of Irving as Becket.) |

| Notes: |
The head of Becket is facing left, and this is probably the photograph portrait by Henry H.H. Cameron. |
