Noting that he heard that Macready was in town from Forster the previous day, and joking that Dickens was thinking of hiring 150 "free and independent republicans from the City of New York, to wait upon [Macready's] reappearances at the Haymarket" because he did not notify Dickens of his arrival himself. Enclosing (not present) something from Poole, who referenced [the French actor] Talma when he gave it to Dickens.
