| Content Summary: |
He sends First Act & Prologue. He hopes Irving will like it and believe in it as he does. As the basis for the remaining acts will Irving write when he has read it? The death scene of Angelo may be painful but necessary. He is well on with all the acts and should finish by second week in May. He knows it is the best thing he has done. Miss Terry's part works out well. He will send two passages in 'King René's Daughter' the next day. |
