Summary
Declining a breakfast invitation; saying "...we arrived here on Saturday after a six weeks tour with the Kendals. As Miss Pattison is just starting for rehearsal will you excuse this very informal reply. We should have been delighted to have breakfasted with you on Friday, but we are forced to go to London that day owing to Miss Pattison's engagements at the St. James's Theatre."
