| Notes: |
The book is 'Mr. & Mrs. Bancroft on and off the stage, written by themselves' first published in 1888 with a cheaper one volume edition in 1889. This does not include the supper given to Bancroft by Irving and J.L. Toole on 27th July 1885, so the letter probably refers to the 1883 supper to Irving at the Garrick Club organized by Bancroft. |

| Content Summary: |
He has just heard a silly rumour in 'The Referee' that 'King Arthur' is to be out next. Wills has not suggested nor is capable of originating such gossip. He sees no one and has no evidence. No need to reply - this is to correct any false impression. |
