He has had a letter from Mme Janauscheck setting out her financial plight, of which he gives details. English actors now in the city might combine to give a benefit and Bellew would participate. Recent comment was about the English in America taking large salaries home, but he has not seen the Americans helping Mme Janauscheck, and the English might contribute. Prominent managers should arrange details. He would do an Act of 'Raffles'. English players only. Would Irving cooperate? |

Greetings from "Auld Reekie". Whistler was an Hon. Member of the Royal Scottish Academy. They propose the next spring to have a collection of his works in the Annual Exhibition opening Feb.1st. Might they borrow Whistler's painting of Irving if still in his possession? It would be cared for and insured. He hopes to hear soon that Irving agrees. He is glad of Irving's success in America, and good news in Scotland. Regards to Irving & Stoker. |
