The envelope is postmarked 10 April 01, but Thursday was 11th. This probably refers to the first night of 'Coriolanus' on 15th April, referred to in Letter 7792. |

| Content Summary: |
He thanks her for letting him read her husband's charming little play. He would be delighted to do it himself if he got an opportunity, or he would see someone else took it on. The only way would be for him to purchase the play by sending a cheque for £100 for the rights and she could hand it or part to the Actors' Benevolent Fund in memory of her illustrious husband. The play is charming and it would be a real pleasure to act in it. |
