Document Type: Letter (3 p.)
Content Summary: He was delighted there was a chance of seeing Toole in town as he was told he was likely to come to Maida Vale soon. The garden must be lovely now. The change will do Toole good - he wants to see him and has lots to tell him. Perhaps Toole will come to see their plays. He has been busy rehearsing all the time including Sundays & sometimes playing eight times a week in heavy work. All the old plays are popular & business is as good as it was bad at the beginning of the season. He will tell Toole all this. When is he coming?

Date: [1901], [June], 14 
Document Type: Letter (2 p.)
Content Summary: Could she quickly replace Irving's costume for the tent scene, which is very dirty. His grey cloak will do. His first dress will need to be replaced but he will need the pale yellow very soon. Her first dress also needs replacing but she will manage with her one, cleaned, cloak from Saturday to Monday. She doubts her green frock can be cleaned. She is worried that Irving is hoarse that night but he struggles on. She requests as little trying on for him as possible.
