Irving has probably seen in the papers that she is soon to be married, but she wants to write herself as though they have not met often, Irving always seemed to take an interest in her work. She would consider it an honour if Irving would come to her wedding. She is remaining on the stage as her future husband understands her love for her work. |

Seven or eight years since she was behind the scenes after 'Becket'. They all think of Irving as a life-time friend. She and Harry (her brother) have collaborated in an Operetta which is to be performed for the first time on Friday. Harry has set the libretto to music. She sends Irving a copy. They send 'one united love'. |

| Content Summary: |
He is sorry he cannot advise Russell-Cotes personally about the Lyceum shares. He has only just returned from nearly a year away on tour. He only knows what he has read in the papers about the company, as his arrangement is to play a certain time in London at a percentage and to give them a share of his profits out of London. Both these ventures have so far been very lucrative to them but he knows nothing of their operations. He was paid a large share of the purchase money of his lease and goods in shares. He advises Russell-Cotes to apply to the company secretary. Kind remembrances to Mrs Russell-Cotes. |
