Re. your article ‚ÄúTouring Out East‚Äù in last week‚Äôs Stage, you say your Co. was the first to play Penang, but I was there with the old Prince of Pimlico Co. a good three years befor that, running down from Singapore. Refer ‚ÄúThirty Years in the Straits Settlements‚Äù by J. G. Thompson Esq.¬Ýfor account of Show and a photo of party, self inclined. And I‚Äôm still going strong‚ÅÝ‚Äînow playing at Ionic here, successful winter season with well-known Good Companions Co. (E. Trant¬Ý& J. Nunn). Forgive correction and accept good wishes of another old pro who has done his share of Touring Out East‚ÅÝ‚Äîthose were great days. + 
