Thanks for Stoker's letter. He is sorry for Irving's decision which he understands but disagrees about the position of Charles in the play. Alexander would be suited but, apart from the Lyceum the lady would be hard to find - do not quote him as saying this. |

Thanks Irving for sending copy of Rede Lecture, but since the address was somewhat illegible the letter went first to Cowbridge and did not arrive until Thursday when the last number of the 'Cantab' for the term was published. He regrets he was unable to make use of it. |

Irving's handwriting is at times illegible, also that of Bram Stoker. See also the correspondence with James Drake Digby. |
