| Content Summary: |
A cutting from 'The Weekly Dispatch' by "The Tramp" denying cabal against Irving and Ellen Terry in New York because of London reception of 'The Whirl of the Town'. Charles Hawtrey was well received. Irving has nothing new to offer America, which pays if amused or interested, otherwise keeps away. Irving adds the note "Ingenious rascal, but it won't wash". |

| Notes: |
Stoker's telegram to Brereton (Letter 8589) also seems to contradict this anti-Irving assertion. With the stamped envelope giving address details. The letter reached London on 7th December. |
