The 7th and before that she should see him as she has to come to town on Saturday to be ready to receive the Haberdashers' freedom on Monday. She will come to Corsica [The Corsican Brothers] on Saturday... but it will be awkward, as her friends are not in town and Mr Bartlett would not be sufficient chaperon - she is a little anxious as to him and rather wants him not to go... She thinks Irving had better use her box on Wednesday morning. It is difficult to arrange there.... |

A note at head says the evening (Wednesday) is promised already. The honorary freedom is of the City of London Haberdashers' Company. |
