| Content Summary: |
She sends some tokens which will please Irving. She had lent her Box to the Old Revision Company who Mr Aston thought ought to see Shylock. She is glad at their stirring the waters of thought and feeling. She thanks Irving for his signature and also for the poor Consumptive address. She thinks home comforts better and will send Mrs Green to find what would soothe. She leaves word that the horse is ready for Irving if wanted the next day. (Postscript) Mr Austin is there cataloguing and seems nice and cheerful "soberly"... |
