My Dear Old Boy—

Can’t you take this note as your authority & run in to the lecture (Hanover Square Rooms) tomorrow evening or Saturday afternoon? Or mail this to Geo. Dolby, (if you prefer,) 52 New Bond street, & he will send you ticket.

Or can’t you come to my room, 113, third floor, Langham, from 11 till [noon?] Am always in then. With great love [&] in great haste, Mark.

Sam repeated his “Sandwich Islands” lecture at Queen’s Concert Rooms, Hanover Square, London at 8 PM [Baetzhold 17].
