MRS. WILLS!

game to do a Scotch housekeeper, in a supposed country-house, with Mary,

Katey, Georgina, etc.? If she can screw her courage up to saying "Yes,"

that country-house opens the piece in a singular way, and that Scotch

housekeeper's part shall flow from the present pen. If she says "No"

(but she won't), no Scotch housekeeper can be. The Tavistock House

season of four nights pauses for a reply. Scotch song (new and original)

of Scotch housekeeper would pervade the piece.
