Text in original language:
My dear Dr. Dvořák
Please send back the M.S. of the “Spectre’s Bride” as soon as you can as we must have it to engrave the Bohemian + German edition from.
I am sorry it is not possible to change the date of the performance of the “Hymnus”: Madame Albani is engaged to sing at the concert and she cannot sing earlier than May 13 because she only returns from the continent at that time.
I will write Mr. Beyer about the Symphony.
We shall be very pleased indeed if you and your friend will come and live at Sydenham with us while you remain in England.
With kindest regards
I am
Yours most sincerely
Alfred H Littleton
