CHARLES DICKENS AND EVANS,

CRYSTAL PALACK PRESS.

To Henry Erving, Esq.

MY DEAR IRVING,

Readers of the following pages will feel

that there is something appropriate in associating the most conspicuous performer of the day with "A New History of the Stage." Apart from this view, I gratify my own feelings of regard by joining

your name with my labours.

Believe me,

Yours always sincerely,

PERCY FITZGERALD.
