Description
Poel writes in response to his correspondent's last letter and asks him not to use his name, Poel, on the professional stage as it can be of little use to him. He requests that the correspondent discuss any plans for opening a school in America that teaches Poel's methods and curriculum. Poel also criticizes the influence of commercial theatre, especially a recent play about the life of William Shakespeare. [The correspondent may be Poel's nephew, Reginald Pole.] The letter's first two pages have been ripped and partially taped together with corners missing.
