Hopes she does not mean to desert him and 'Dante'; vital that she plays in it. Has altered his plans for the sake of her help, she will not regret it. She can play fine parts and must sometime get away from the modern to realise her ambitions. Perhaps she can put off 'La Chatelaine' until the autumn. Wyndham would be the last to insist on her cancelling her engagement with Irving. |
