| Content Summary: |
For various reasons she does not leave for home on the Walrus till the next week - but they come up on Saturday for 'The Iron Chest' and she hopes to see it again on Tuesday and 'Hamlet' Wednesday, then she will feel at home. She will be at luncheon at Stratton(?) by 5 o'cl or earlier Saturday; if Irving likes to come back in it will be a pleasure. Her young shipmates went the last night and Friday. Lady Ely has asked for that evening... She has a horse there & Mr Bartlett takes her out very carefully and gently. She longs for a good talk. |

Note that seats reserved 27/10/79. 'The Corsican Brothers' did not open at the Lyceum until 18th September 1880 so this must be a a mistake for 'The Iron Chest'. |
