Date: 1886, March, 8

Content Summary: Please reply to him on general matters to the Reform Club. 1. Please send him a dozen of their programmes containing his article. 2. Can he have 2 places for his son on Saturday. 3. Can he put in his popular London letter any contradiction of Miss Terry's rumoured visit to America? 4. Has Irving or has Stoker any decided views on the measures now before Parliament for regulating theatres?
Published: -
Notes: Russell's article may have been on 'Faust'. Parliament was considering the better regulation of London's theatres and music halls - an almost annual event. Harry Irving in Letter 4459 also refers to a press rumour about a trip to America. Irving made a private visit, but not Ellen Terry.
