"Dear Hutton,"
"Thanks for yours: very sorry Mrs Hutton wont be able to turn up on Friday night : suppose, under the circumstances, we ""cry off"" as regards the Dinner and, instead, you come round to my Dressing Room after the 1st Act of Pirates and we'll have a jaw and a drink - you'll have 15 minutes interval. Let it stand at this old chap."
"Yours very truly,"
Fred. Billington
