They came up the day before and she is busy. She hopes Irving will be able to come from Corsica on Thursday for the household has a dance... Mrs Brown would have wished it, for the Baroness has been told her tenants attribute all their little pleasures to her. Can Irving also come the next Sunday - on Saturday she is out late on tiring business, engrossing the foundation of the Church at Benton. |

| Content Summary: |
She asks for a box for Friday or Saturday evening. She has heard of the great success of 'The Corsican Brothers'. She saw it with Charles Kean and Fechter. Her young cousin is with them. When they return to town in 3 weeks may they see Tennyson's new play. Perhaps Irving would like to see what she has written about the Ophelia of her imagination, written to please her dying friend Miss Jewsbury - she encloses a copy. |

'The Corsican Brothers' was followed on 3rd January 1881 by 'The Cup'. |

Irving is very kind and she will be glad because of her little girl to go to the private entrance. She would be so pleased if Irving can come to the Box. P.S. She will send the child and her governess first as they have only one carriage in town but she will be in time for the beginning with Mrs Greville. |
