Summary
Congratulating him on a review; saying "The Author will be proud and happy. i wish we had the privilege of his wise counsel. He was a remarkable friend to the Actor, and you have done him full square justice. What a happy far away world it seems. And yet I was born the year before the Magistrate appeared in public. He and Bancroft will be reading about you in the Heavenly Court Circular, giving you their blessing. We shall not look upon their like again. Thank you for giving them, your public, and the critics such a perfect performance."
