Recipient: Brereton, Austin >>
Address: 13 York Chambers, Adelphi
Date: 1901, Nov., 1 
Document Type: Letter (3 p.)
Content Summary: Keep his eye on this young man - success with old repertoire phenomenal - could travel world through with 'Merchant of Venice' but also have larger repertoire than any living actor and plays which crowd houses. No necessity for new plays - and only following footsteps of Garrick, Kean, Macready and Booth. Drop a line. He sees the "Holy One" has had a bogus interview to drag in a bogus story of an outrage against a youth for a harmless bit of fun - dismissal from the Lyceum. Brereton probably saw the interview. What a dirty dog the writer is.
