Letter (3 p.) |
| Content Summary: |
She has had no chance of playing Shakespeare in London and Irving may not know she does such parts so she proposes coming to rehearse Portia for him, on approval. He probably thinks her over confident, but her dream in England has been to work with him. She is making a last attempt to convince him of her worth. (Postscript:) She told the Lewises the previous night of having seen Irving; Sir George kindly offered the enclosed. |

| Notes: |
Private written boldly in blue pencil at head. George Lewis was Irving's solicitor and presumably wrote in her support. The enclosure is not present. Irving replied on 23/6/99; she had previously asked for a part in 'Robespierre'. |

Sorry to disturb the paragraph but it is not true. Toole and Irving were never in Romford together. Irving once gave a reading at Romford in his youth but didn't meet Toole until four or five years later in Edinburgh. |
