Recipient: Irving, Sir Henry >>
Address: [London]
Date: 18[80?], [July?]

Content Summary: Irving has used the wrong timetable. There are 2 Gorings and they are going to Oxfordshire with the only Sunday trains at 10 in the morning and the 2.30 which reaches Goring at 4.25. Is it worth telegraphing [Edmund] Yates saying they are too tired and will come by the latter train? If so it had better be done at once. (Postscript:) Irving is sure to have a few in pit and gallery that night.
