Letter (1 p.) |
| Content Summary: |
The first pages are not legible since written by Wills so he sends only from the first entrance of Iolanthe to the end. He thinks it is a beautiful woman's part now - it seemed too diffuse in the original. He asks Irving to send back the first act of scenario. |

| Notes: |
In pencil. Wills was adapting 'King René's Daughter' to be performed as 'Iolanthe' on 20th May. Just possibly the scenario may be that for 'Rienzi' on which he was also working. |
