She forgot to give him this the other day. It is amusing. She is taking Kate [Crowe] an exact portrait of Salvini in 'Othello' from 'Vanity Fair'. |

A note written on a ms. copy of a long letter from R. Sharp to [John] Henderson on [John Philip] Kemble's Hamlet. Lady Pollock did not admire Salvini and the portrait is a caricature. |

If his male correspondent will forward his copy of 'Richelieu' he will be pleased to mark the passages he retained. |

| Notes: |
Irving first performed Bulwer Lytton's 'Richelieu' at the Lyceum on 27th September 1873. This letter in his hand has on the back a note by H.H. (possibly Henry Howe?) reading "Henry Irving the tragedian 26th November 1874". |

| Content Summary: |
Thanks for another delightful evening. She enjoys 'Hamlet' more every time she sees it. Cannot say how much she admires Irving's acting and his way of speaking the grand words. Should like to see it again but is going away next week until January. If Irving has a day or two to spare she and the Duke would love to see him about Xmas time. Last night her brother-in-law, Lord Ronald Gower and Mr and Hon. Mrs Batson[?] were all entranced. Ronald believes he has never seen such a Hamlet before. |

| Content Summary: |
For her son she returns two of the three vols Irving has lent. He keeps the Devonshire 4to of 1603. In some places she prefers the simpler first copy [1st 'bad' quarto?] She cites various passages. She has read Mr [Edward] Russell but does not understand his drift and criticises his views of other actors too. She saw Charles Kean who was unattractive. She has heard from Mrs Greville who will call soon. They will probably get on well having the same tastes. She had a very bad headache at the Lyceum and hardly knew what she said. Next day she goes with her husband and Maurice to St. Julian till Monday. |

'My dear Hamlet'. Maurice was one of her sons. |
