Date: 1879, June, 10 
Document Type: Letter (3 p.)
Content Summary: Has been very ill and unable to write. Captain Armsbury gave him Irving's letter. He is tied every night by the 'Mercury' for articles for plays. If Irving would like a rival notice, send a stall to the 'Globe' and Deane of the Arundel will write. Apologises for not doing justice to the interesting series of performances but glad Irving was able to get a paragraph for advertisement from his notice of 'The Lady of Lyons' in the 'Morning Post'. He will do his best in the 'M.P' and 'Globe' but would rather see Irving in a bigger line of parts.

Content Summary: Delaunay is anxious to fix a day to see Irving's theatre. He has many things to tell Irving and wants her to interpret. Last night in error she carried off a handkerchief marked 'Ellen Terry'. She will write to her. How well Irving plays the piano and he never told them. Tell Stoker what time suits best and he could send a line. Delaunay plays 'Misanthrope' the next Saturday but she does not know his other arrangements. Perrin has arrived and relieved Delaunay of some trouble.
