Autograph Letter Signed from Frederick Vining, London, to W.C. Macready


Book Description

Refuses a professional opportunity, indicating that the terms "are low indeed" and that he "cannot, as a family Man, feel justified in yielding to such a sacrifice of pecuniary means." Wishes Macready further success, with hopes that he might "raise our Art, and the degraded Actors, to that standard of Respectibility they have for some time been strangers to."
