He has heard from Lady Ely that it was Irving himself who provided them with the box at the Lyceum on Tuesday. He and Major Wernher express their heartiest thanks for his kindness, and very much enjoyed his highly interesting interpretation of Hamlet. Both admired the reality and consistency of his interpretation, and will long remember the eminently artistic performance. |
