Copy letter from Warren P. Munsell, Business Manager, The Theatre Guild, Inc. 245 West 52nd Street, New York City addressed to Mr. [Eric?] Gorman. An addendum to the copy reads 'This letter will come up for the consideration of the [Abbey] board at the next meeting.' Munsell proposes that the Abbey Theatre might tour the United States and Canada under Theatre Guild management if they performed a play by Edward J. Eustace entitled 'The Kings of The Mountains'. According to Munsell 'The locale is in the coal fields of Pennsylvania in 1876 and the principal characters are the Irish who formed the Mollie Maguire society and lived in that section at the time.' Under the proposed agreement the Abbey would first produce the play in Dublin, following that production 'The Theatre Guild is to have an option to bring the entire company and production to the United States and Canada on terms to be agreed upon in advance for the individual actors and the Abbey Theatre'
