Expresses his regret for having communicated to Boucicault the intention of William Winter's nearest friends, as he only just learned that Boucicault is a recent acquaintance of his. Letter is dated simply "Wednesday" but 1873 is written on the first leaf in what appears to be William Winter's hand.

Reaffirms that his current terms are "share after expenses," but that "under the circumstances I do not feel justified in sharing your cream - so let the old terms stand - after 100£."

Letters, autographs, and one portrait photograph. Most of the letters are to unnamed recipients, but one is addressed to his friend Planché, one to J.G. Bennett, and one to Wingfield. Most of the letters are on routine social or business matters, but the one to J.G. Bennett refers to an enclosed letter and extract from the New York Herald (not included) concerning an event which "demands grave editorial notice."
