Printed copy of a letter to Professor J C C Mays from Robinson, in which he asks for his help in identifying a verse with 'a Coleridge echo' quoted by Colville Scott in his diary.

Says they had Ray's play down for revival during the previous month but had so much new work to get through that they were not able to do it. Says Allgood and O’Donovan will be gone for most of March so unless they come back the last week they won’t be able to do it until autumn. Says he liked the new ending of the play (Martin Whelan) but that Brophy hadn’t made Whelan and the girl’s conversations human enough yet. Says he thought of asking him to try again but thought that in rehearsal he could alter some things. Mentions he is glad to hear that Brophy has a new play. 1911 is written in pencil in the top right-hand corner. Ray’s name appears in the letterhead for the first time. This is the first typed letter to Ray on Abbey letterhead.

Thanks Brophy for sending him a program, says he found a copy of it in the office. Says they might revive Whelan in Easter week, or the week after, but he is unsure. Says he is glad to hear the new play is getting on well. W.A. Henderson is no longer listed as secretary in the Abbey letterhead, no secretary at all.

Says he is sorry Brophy is distressed about Martin Whelan. Says the play did not go well on Wednesday night and that the audience didn't seem to like it and so they decided not to repeat it on Saturday. Says they had not played it since October 1910 and had forgotten it more than he thought and didn't have as many rehearsals as they should have. Says the papers were all respectful, and sends along one or two Brophy might not have seen. Sent from “Court Theatre, Sloane Square”, London, on Abbey letterhead.
