Letter from Marie Seebach to William Winter [manuscript], 1871 February 17.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/668093764

Seebach thanks Mr. Winter for his interest in her performance of Ophelia; she loves this pure, tender mayflower, as she does Desdemona. She only regrets that her partner is not Booth or Fetcher playing Hamlet or Othello. Daily rehearsals prevent her from seeing Mrs. and Mr. Winter, but she hopes she will be able to do so before her benefit in a week.
