| Content Summary: |
He has been bothered with letters from English and foreign dramatic agents applying for German, Austrian, Hungarian, etc. rights in 'The Medicine Man' - all probably not worth the postage, so he has handed the correspondence to Elizabeth Marbury. Can he have the 3 or 4 copies she wants. She keenly wants the American rights. If Irving were to take the play to America himself he would prefer the rights to remain with Irving, but as that is not probable he would like Miss Marbury to try. Traill's wife would like to see the play before it disappears from the stage. Can he have seats for the next Tuesday night? |
