She is sorry she did not give Irving their Welsh address before she left town - the weather is lovely. They are there until 12th or 13th June. Send her the advertisement for his benefit a good fortnight before so she can ratify how he presents her name. Mrs Leigh Murray has acted Martha with her in 'King René's Daughter' and would do it again, but if Miss Pauncefort is at the Lyceum Irving could not do better. Has Irving received the books she sent the previous Wednesday? |

The benefit was to be on 23rd June. Helena Martin has reversed the last two figues of the date. |

He has received the Address Irving promised to send him and read it with interest and he hopes, profit. He believes Irving is right in thinking they have drawn too austere a line between sacred and profane and wrongly relegated Drama to the dark side. Glad that a master of tragic representation feels so nobly and writes so well about the stage. |

This is probably Irving's address on Amusements delivered on 31 March 1876 to the Church of England temperance Society. |
