Date: 1875, June, 14 Monday
Document Type: Letter (4 p.)
Content Summary: Delighted with Irving's Hamlet. Clear enunciation, admirable emphasis and inflection. He dwarfed all other performers though a number were good especially the Ghost. A great actor lifts all others as far as they can go. He has been reading Goethe's 'Wilhelm Meister' re 'Hamlet'. Does Irving know it? Mrs Friswell is delighted that Irving will give them a day when some of the old wine may be tapped. Come in early July. P.S. He has some fine strawberries picked for Irving. Where shall he send them? Shall he send a cheque to Mrs Bateman for the Box? He was ill and Kingsley, due to call died suddenly.
