Content Summary: This letter belongs to Harry - it was opened with his. Irving believes he is in Brighton and hopes having a good time. Call and see Toole at the Old Ship. He wishes he were with Harry as Bournemouth is banishment. Mrs Allingham, a friend of Harry's has written him a kind letter and he will call on her and her husband. He is sure Laurence got on splendidly on Saturday night. He hopes to see them both soon on the stage, and sooner, off. All love.

Notes: Laurence Irving played Paul Petrovoski in 'The Crystal Globe' which opened at the Princess's Theatre on 24th December. Mrs Allingham is probably the artist Helen Allingham, wife of the poet William Allingham.

Content Summary: Come on Sunday week instead of the next Sunday and they will have more time together. At the end of that week two or three are coming. All accounts of the play are very interesting. He thought Randall(?) came out very well. He will come one night when he gets back. It must have been hard work putting it together. They will have a lot to talk over. There's a capital Sunday train at 12.5. McHardy, a doctor, came by it on Xmas day. All is going well and he feels stronger each hour. (Postscript:) He has no intention of disposing of American rights of 'Robespierre' at least at present.

Notes: The play referred to may be 'The Crystal Globe' by Sutton Vane in which Laurence was appearing at the Princess's Theatre from 24th December, but no Randall seems connected with it. Professor McHardy the oculist had spent Christmas Eve 1897 with Irving when he was laid up with ruptured knee ligaments.
