He saw the tragedian [Henry Irving] the previous afternoon and reached results: 1 That Irving would place £32 for her at his bankers every 4 weeks and send her a cheque book. 2. As it is hard to find a new home near Portman Square he agrees she should keep the present one on. Irving will reserve the next vacancy with Miss Moore. Let the boys have the proposed governess in the meantime. He will pay any increased cost of clothes. 3. He will pay the insurance if given details. |

Letter (8 p.) |
| Content Summary: |
He is writing a book about Naples and has been at Vesuvius at a time of eruption, which he describes at length. Irving might find comfort in studying characters in the older poetic drama. He talks of modern trends in drama, moral attitudes, and the responsibility of the dramatist. Teddy and his wife are well. |

Postscript at head suggests that Irving was considering 'The Wandering Jew' as a dramatic subject. |
