Content Summary: |
He has been ill and may not get to London for Lyceum season but wants to see Irving briefly about his book about Miss Terry. Irving said he might lend things for illustration purposes, and Pemberton wants unusual things like old photographs and playbills, anecdotes or letters. The book is going well and will please Irving. Newspapers are keeping them informed in Birmingham about the revivals and they look forward to a treat in September when he hopes to see Irving. |

Content Summary: |
Norman [his brother] has told him of talk with Irving about himself and his wife playing Faust and Marguerite with Irving. They would both love to fight under Irving's splendid banner but Forbes Robertson has commitments - a tour from September to Xmas and then a new piece. He wants something for America. Can they leave it open? The comedy experience [unspecified] was the devil. Will come to see Irving before he closes. |

Will she see the enclosed letter reaches Irving, as Castle does not know his present address and it is urgent. The 'Illustrated London News' has asked for a Christmas story and as he is working on a new book, he cannot undertake new work. He has long wanted to republish a well crafted piece. Will Stoker deliver the note ... |

Notes: |
The earlier piece is unidentified, but presumably involved Irving. |
