| Content Summary: |
Can he come to her Wednesday instead of Tuesday; he has another engagement on Tuesday. Her advice is kind and sound but he did not intend the article to be an absolute reply. He didn't want the gentleman (heaven save the mark!) even mentioned. He would like everything possible said in favour of Salvini but he would like the folly of comparing their acting exposed. Each has merit but completely opposite. He met Salvini the day before and thought him delightful. He wants Sir Frederick to dine with him [on?] Tuesday if he will. He thanks her warmly for her goodness. |

| Content Summary: |
The news of Mr. Bateman's death has greatly shocked her. She knows Irving will be a son and brother to the house but it is a fearful calamity. Will he write and tell her how they are - she is going to see a servant there this morning. Can he call the next day or can she see him. She loves all the Batemans and really suffers. Whatever Bateman's faults he had many merits. She has a sincere affection for Irving and hopes nothing will induce him to take on the management. Managing and acting broke down Macready in two years. A great actor has enough in his art. |
