Mrs Pinero joins him in thanking Irving for his note. They have withdrawn from the bustle of London but can come up to town when work permits. He has, therefore, noted 28th July as a day when he can relax. Poor Comyns Carr, now relieved of sad anxiety, is coming to see him and they will have time to discuss the scheme of the drama he is planning. |

Irving's memory and Garrick dispatch shame and delight him. He is taking his sorrow abroad, with Jameson's book, for which he feels grateful. |

Congratulations - apologising for lateness. The Queen's tribute to Irving as actor and man seems well deserved to thousands & to the profession he so worthily represents.

Members send congratulations. Since Irving accepted the Presidency in 1887 they have only once had the pleasure of seeing him, at the 'Two Roses' at the Victoria Hall in June 1889. They would like to entertain him at a dinner at any time or place he suggests. The banqueting hall at the Olympia has been suggested. |

Earnest congratulations. He has been ill with bronchial pneumonia and is only just allowed up. He praises Irving and says how their dear friend Toole must rejoice. He called on him before he left for Hastings and soon afterwards he was down himself. The tributes paid at the Royal Academy, Savage Club & Royal Theatrical Fund Dinner must tell the dear old fallen angel that his goodness and kindness are universally appreciated. God bless Irving. |
