Irving's letter has been forwarded. How late in the season he gives his benefit. Sims Reeves has arranged a short summer tour and will be up north but thinks he can run up to London for the night. What would Irving like him to do? Sing two songs or play 'The Waterman'? Let him know. Glad Irving is doing so well and wishes him long life and continuing successful career. P.S. He returns home next Wednesday so send reply to Norwood but do not delay in answering! |

With her habit of meddling with other people's affairs she has considered the pleasant coaching plan Irving spoke about the day before. It would be better if he took a day after he closed -the Monday or Tuesday would only keep him from the sea for one more day. If he had to choose Sunday she offers him and his friends her garden... and he could drive back by Hampstead or Alexandra Palace... |
