My dear friend, On Saturday next - August 9th - we dine at the Carlton, don't we? I am looking forward with delight to our meeting. Room engaged and all prepared for Coronation Feast at 8 of the clock with my dear friends Sir Frank and Lady B[urnand] - the Misses B[urnand] and Sir Charles S.c. [Santley?] and we hope for Sir John T[enniel] and I'm writing now to Bernard P [Partridge] if you will kindly post the letter. Could you suggest anybody else that could be happy with us all? With love and greetings - to all believe me. Yours ever Henry Irving. |

At top of first page 'Accepted' in another hand. After King Edward VII's recovery from illness, the coronation, which Irving attended, was delayed until August 9th. This letter is likely to be to Abbey as he is not listed; his reply is Letter 44. Tenniel's acceptance is Letter 2904, and Partridge's Letter 1960. |
