| Content Summary: |
His hopes have been disappointed and her fears realised. Nothing will induce Irving to come to see her, despite Cross's arguments in a long interview. Afterwards in the presence of Mr Dubois Irving proposed his own doctor (Ringer) should see Dr Palfrey and afterwards see her. She would be informed of the decision and Mr Dubois would be instructed to carry it out as she wished and as economically as possible. Cross regrets this result, but it is as expected and she will doubtless accept it with more compliance. |

Dr Walter Walshe finally examined Florence, who had a pulmonary infection. See Letter 4246. Dubois was Irving's solicitor, soon to be replaced by Lewis & Lewis. |

His proposal for boxes was £1200 repaid in 3 monthly instalments of £400 rather than £300. When is Loveday returning? Stoker is there with his wife! When Loveday returns they will settle address & box list. Get Ledger to insert this next week. The storm has affected them badly. No carriages go out. £50 last night. Bad - very. |
