Stoker misunderstood. If Irving allows, he wants a printed copy to correct and cut. Will cut in pencil, but more space if printed and easier to alter if seen in print. He has been ill and distracted. Another separate act to copy out. He enjoyed their walk home. |

| Notes: |
Note probably indicates copy sent 6/1/82 ; this is his play 'Robert Emmett', which he had begun in 1879. |
