| Content Summary: |
It is like Catling to make such a kind suggestion to record what he calls a memorable date. ... This is a fine bracing coast but a little dull. The summer is over there and he thinks of going to the Lakes for a while. Kindest greetings to all at home. |

Lloyd's Weekly 1905. |
| Notes: |
From a press cutting. Catling planned articles in 'Lloyd's Weekly' to mark the beginning of Irving's 50th year on the stage on 29th September. He had written asking for an interview to verify dates. This took place on 7th September in Stratton Street. See also Letter 8598. |

| Content Summary: |
Macmillan has sent Beeching a copy of Irving's letter to them. He is sorry they did not take Beeching into their confidence before. He entirely agrees that as Irving had a statement of that kind from Ainger it would be wrong to repeat the article. |

L. Irving, p.663 |
| Notes: |
According to Irving, Ainger later said "That ought not to have been written. I am utterly ashamed of it". |
