without desire or even thought of earthly
recompense.
Besides, the generous impulses of the
mem bers of the theatrical profession are
already more than sufficiently taxed. L
fail to see why that profession in partlcu-
lar should be called upon TO give its time
and the exercise of its talents, as il so
often does, for the sole benefit of others.
mo, no, my good friend, l cannot con-
sent To what is SO generously proposed.
Believe me, L am most sincere when l
say That L 90 not recognize myself as
having any such claim, any pecnniary
claln whatever, upon the members of
the theatrical profession. Their respect
and confidence and atfectionate remem
brance are all that | DESIRE are all that |
have ever desired. And L anl most sure
that | have them.
II God permits me to be one to whom
none hesitates to come, as none need, l
am most thankful to him.
Let, then, any member of the theatre
cal profession, or any one else, come to
me at any time for any service in my
Gaining tnat L can render, always bearing
IN mind that one good turn deserves an
