He will be with them Sunday at two. Has given Knussen(?) for Stoker £120 for Lyceum. Stoker's salary is £10. D[am]n Bellew's impudence. Does he think to alter all their colours. Horrid night - awful fog. |

| Notes: |
Irving took a brief break in Bristol before the opening of the Lyceum season, after Stoker's arrival. Kyrle Bellew who played Osric in 'Hamlet' may have wanted to change his costume. He was only a company member for the 1878-79 season. |

They have just heard of Irving's offer of a box for his opening night. When they asked they were under the impression that it was for 28th. The 30th is their son's birthday and they think they cannot get away early enough and would like to defer their visit until the next day. |
