Novello, Ewer and Co. Dvořák Antonín

My dear Friend

I was delighted to be get your letter and to hear that you are coming to London again. I hope you will come and stay with us here and that you will bring Madame Dvořák with you. We shall all be very glad indeed to see you both again. I hope you will be able to arrange for your visit to be early in the spring: it ought not to be later than March because after that all choral concerts are over: we might also arrange something for the Crystal Palace but their concerts finish before Easter you know.

I will write to Birmingham and tell them they may perhaps hear from you before the end of the year. 

Looking forward to the pleasure of seeing you soon here again.

I am

Yours very sincerely

Alfred H Littleton

Please let me know directly about the date you will be in London - It is very important it should be early in the year.
