She is just starting but he understands the Ships Company will be at The Rialto the next day and would wish to give the cheer the Walruses wanted to give but did not know how to manage. She is so sorry to part from these rough folk with their tender hearts. Irving will be pleased to know her servants were charmed with 'Iron Chest'. |

'The Merchant of Venice' opened on 1st November. This presumably refers to the crew of the Walrus. |

Great praise of Irving's Shylock. He looked like a Titian portrait. Finest scene with Bassanio in 3rd Act especially gestures with stick. Ellen Terry charming - what a dress! Barnes should soften down. Never saw such scenery in Paris or anywhere else. A thousand thanks for ticket. |
