| Content Summary: |
Asks if Irving, as he does not play Saturday nights, could come from Saturday to Monday and enjoy Hampshire air and drive out. Would be well to go over scenes again. Halswelle has nearly finished two [?] oil pictures besides other designs. Followed Irving's ideas very closely. Offers Irving the chance ,"as brother artists" to use or reproduce without any cost to Irving. Halswelle will be well-paid by Grosvenor or New Gallery besides it is a labour "con amore" for William Shakespeare and Irving. Has studied the play [Macbeth] for some nights very carefully. They can talk over a cigar. Gives times of train from Waterloo to Petersfield. He will ask R.H.Wyndham to meet Irving at the station. Dinner at 8 o'clock. |
