LETTER 579
CHARLES LAMB TO JOHN FORSTER
[No date. May, 1833.]
D'r F. Can you oblige me by sending 4 Box orders undated for the Olympic Theatre? I suppose Knowles can get 'em. It is for the Waldens, with whom I live. The sooner, the better, that they may not miss the "Wife"—I meet you at the Talfourds' Saturday week, and if they can't, perhaps you can, give me a bed.
Yours ratherish unwell
C. LAMB.
Mr. Walden's, Church Street, Edmonton.
Or write immediately to say if you can't get em.
[Knowles' play "The Wife," produced at Covent Garden, was moved to the
Olympic on May 9.]
