Content Summary: Had pleasure of seeing Irving at Monday's performance. Her husband has left for Paris and this explains why he did not pay his compliments to Irving and Ellen Terry. She regrets being deprived of the Box at Irving's disposal. The London Madame Sans Gêne is always at home in the Paris one and Napoleon is at home anywhere, especially when she and her husband can express gratitude for Irving's hospitality. She hopes Irving will come to Paris soon.
