Sending with this note 'Livre de la piece' which proves Shakespeare is untranslatable into French - he gives some examples. He is sending photographs and a cigar holder bought for Irving in a German town as Irving has a 'predilection for the soothing plant'. Henry White and some Australian ladies are lunching with Cartwright at the Garrick that day - will Irving join them? 'It is a picture party.' |
