| Content Summary: |
The visit of Baroness Burdett Coutts & Henry Irving has paid great honour to the Club that evening, with memorable brilliant effect. They have had the honour of hearing Irving on several occasions by invitation of the Baroness, and have profited from his words. They must not despair in adversity and pray for assistance, but also help themselves. |

| Notes: |
Irving seems to have carried the Baroness's message, probably to her costermongers' Columbia Club: the Burdett Coutts Club for Working Class Men & Boys. The address is also signed by other Club officers. |
