She thanks Irving for the previous evening. Irving identifies well with different characters and as Claude Melnotte he understands the sufferings of a man of honour. Madame Terry is charming and seconds Irving perfectly. Costumes and incidental music are admirable. She thanks him for telling Baroness Burdett Coutts that she was in the house and was able to talk to her. Her granddaughter and the ladies with her expressed their enthusiasm. |
