| Content Summary: |
Being unsure if Irving remembered him, he asked the Duke of Meiningen to introduce him. He was glad to meet the "hero of dramatic art", His play 'Guilty' was specially translated for Irving but he never heard if he read it. If not, may he send. It has been translated by J.Stirling Weir(?) of Edinburgh who will give Irving the copy. He would be pleased if Irving approved of the play. |

Possibly copied by Voss in English. Irving had contemplated producing the play 'Schuldig' in 1891 (see under that title). |

| Content Summary: |
He suggest Irving might consider a modern play with less arduous roles or to stage with 'Waterloo'. He describes the plot of a serious but not tragic play with lower class characters, dealing with the fate of a dissipated young man redeemed through self sacrifice. It is called 'In After Years'. If of no interest let him know. |

Irving's note is: Send play 25/10/94, but he rejected what sounds like a melodrama. The play is not listed by Nicoll. |
