Content Summary: He asked Sarah to find her - she can keep the dresses and use or dispose of them. He gives extended advice about newspaper advertisements and their arbitrary practice, putting Drury Lane first by age, &c. You can be next to Drury Lane in the 'Mail' if you pay about double. Perhaps Stoker can give her some hints. He will ask, but does not think much can be done, nor does it matter. God bless her his Nell again.

Notes: Signed HI; Ellen Terry underlines one point. Sarah Holland was Ellen Terry's dresser. This advice is presumably given as Ellen took the Imperial Theatre to stage 'The Vikings' in April 1903. Bram Stoker as Acting Manager had been responsible for the Lyceum advertisements.
