Content Summary: He sends a programme for his matinée. He wishes to express his regret that John Coleman had written to Irving asking him to play at Loraine's benefit after he had seen the letter that Bram Stoker sent to Charles Wyndham on the subject. "Save me from my friends." He did not authorise Coleman to write and knew nothing of it till a few days previously. He is delighted with the honour conferred on Irving as every actor must feel reflected glory. He particularly praises Irving's performance and business at the end of the 2nd Act of 'The Merchant of Venice'.
