Her good friend Mrs Russell of the Royal Hotel Arundel comes to London on holiday on that night's train.Could Irving give her & party some seats for the next day (Saturday) as she wants to give her what pleasure she can, and nothing would be so great. Could Irving use her box that evening. She had reserved it for herself and forgot it was'Twelfth Night ' at the Temple which they had promised Mr Bosack(?) to attend. She had hoped to have been at Holly Lodge by then, but it was too cold. (Postscript) It seems long since they had a talk. |
