Date: [1901?], May, 7 
Document Type: Letter (3 p.)
Content Summary: He thanks Irving for his telegram. The play is going splendidly with good return. He got tired of pestering big authors to write plays for him, and reading the works of unknowns and decided to write one himself. For the next piece, if he writes one, he will paint his own scenery and regrets he can't also take the money in front. As a friend he has been delighted to hear of Irving's success everywhere. He does not think the new aesthetic edition of 'Robert Macaire' as good as the old one - Irving's production at the Lyceum was the only way to do it. He fears Toole is no better, and will run down on Sunday. (Postscript) Kindest regards to Miss Terry. He sold his house and is living in these furnished lodgings for a while.

Notes: Grossmith's 'The Night of the Party', which opened at the Avenue Theatre on 1st May 1901, was a great success.
