Devised a bookplate based on "Had Shakespeare a library?" which Irving might like to present to the Garrick Club. Joseph Hatton thinks it would give Irving pleasure. There is a larger for folios and a note of Irving's presentation would give it chic. |

Letter (3 p.) |
| Content Summary: |
He sees in 'The Era' that Ellaline Terriss will not join Irving at Christmas for a part in 'Arthur'. Would Irving give Warner's daughter a chance? She has 5 years' experience in leading parts and is currently free. Will Irving see her? She would make a good understudy for Miss Terry and he is confident in her abilities. He encloses a photo and is anxious for a reply. |

Apologises for a previous letter. He had wrongly thought Irving wanted him for 'King Arthur', but this was a good thing as Mr Wyndham would not release him. He would like to talk to Irving about future arrangements when he returns to town, if Irving can spare the time from his production. |

Irving's note seems to imply he was to be seen 3/12/94. Webster eventually took over the part of Lancelot from Forbes Robertson. |
