MY DEAR PERCEVAL,--

Mother & I had planned to take some friends to the theatre to-night

and bought a box for the Knickerbocker several weeks ago, but now

we have decided to go to Mrs. Hadley-Owen's post-Lenten masquerade

ball instead, and as none of our friends can use the tickets, I

thought possibly you might like them. They say Otis Skinner is

_wonderful_. Of course you may not care to sit in a stage box

without a dress suit, but perhaps you won't mind. If you do, maybe

you know somebody else who could go properly dressed.

Your aff'te cousin,
