He agrees - it is better to settle the two and save trouble. He is just beginning to feel the benefit of the change but the weather is unsettled. 'Savonarola' no go - so he is still on the lookout for something new - "to H--- wth the Napkin" - and at it again. |

| Notes: |
Typewritten transcript with an obviously incorrect date. Irving was on holiday at the end of the season. 'Savonarola' cannot be the play suggested by Herman Merivale in 1901 (see Letter 2467) but Irving had been reading a unidentified play by a Frenchman, apparently translated by Laurence Irving. |

Thanks for his letter. Irving will be glad to read his play. He has recently been reading a play by a French author in which Savonarola is the principal character. It is called 'The Iconoclast'. He will be delighted to read his play at once and hopes he may meet him before he leaves Cromer. |

Addressed to her as Mr [Robert] Dudley. She adds a note that her play was 'The Monk of San Marco'. The French play is not yet identified, but is presumably that referred to in Letter 2483. |
