Content Summary: He went straight from the Lyceum that afternoon to see Mounet [Sully] who is laid up with a bad leg. He dwelt on two things: missing seeing Irving in 'The Merchant of Venice' and 'The Bells' and on his nervousness at playing 'Hamlet'. For him there were only two great actors living - Irving and Salvini. He was very interested in the management of 'The Bells' which went for nothing when Gôt played Mathias.
