| Description | One letter from English author James Spedding to William Allingham acknowledging Allingham's letter from April 30th, and mentioning that at the time he had nothing to share with Allingham. However, now he believes that a stage performance done by acctress Ellen Terry and her portrayal of "Portia," ought to be recognized. Spedding mentions that he wrote an article on Terry's sister's portrayal of "Viola," several years ago for Fraser. If Allingham would have room in the magazine, Spedding writes that he is interested in writing a short article on Terry's performance. |
