Greetings to all. The interests and honour of the Actors' Association are his heart's desire. It can only be supported by the enthusiasm of all actors, and changes might be brought about if desirable, but only with more supplies and a larger roll of members. When so many earnest men are trying they should be supported, and he believes the Association will support them. |

A press cutting listing those attending the meeting on the afternoon of Friday 13th October. The irony of Irving's death later that day is remarked. |

Apologies for being out when Robertson called. Glad that Irving's remains are to rest in Westminster Abbey. He has known Irving since 1876 - 27 years. Used to meet almost daily at Baroness Burdett Coutt's when Sinclair was a curate at Quebec Chapel, Portman Square, They visited St Alban's Cathedral together and were freemasons of the same Lodge - the Jerusalem. Irving greatly helped his generation with his high ideals. |
