Mrs B is not at home so he answers as the messenger is waiting. She is unable to accept Irving's invitation as she has an afternoon party which will stretch into the evening. He has an appointment with Chatterton at 4.30 so he will get down by train as best he can. What time is dinner? |

| Notes: |
Boucicault quarrelled with Chatterton, and the latter was made bankrupt in October 1879. This may be a dinner at Richmond? |
