I will deposit ... one hundred Pounds" to be compensation for failure, or a present if successful, "a very slight insight into the style and construction will ... be sufficient ... If therefore you will permit me some Sunday morning ... at your own residence I will read you a portion of one act ... the principal members of your talented company would be required ... Messrs Farren, Hudson, Holt, Brindal and Stewart, with Mrs Seymour and Miss Fortescue. - Such, Mr Webster is my proposal plainly and frankly told", and suggesting "my Cheque on Hankey's & Co" as perhaps sufficient reference, 2 sides 4to., 15 St. George's Terrace, Kennington, no date, watermark
