Anna Dickinson [GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE] Habberton, John
1879-80“Herald” Office, 18/1/79
Dear Miss Dickinson,
I regret 
to have been unable to personally
use the tickets you 
so kindly sent me for your 
lecture last night, but my 
wife went and more than 
represented me. I trust that 
I need not tell you how 
heartily I like the subject 
and tone of your lecture. 
I wish you might deliver 
it at the churches of every 
town in the land. The [illegible] 
needs a new set of patrons, 
to help it become all it should 
be, and I can imagine assurer[?] way for it to push
them than through the effort
which you are now making,
and which I don't doubt
will be successful.
Always Yours Sincerely,
John HabbertonHerald, Sept. 19/80
Dear Mrs. Dickinson:
Won't you 
drop in at my first 
dramatic funeral, in 
Brooklyn, this week?
Tell me when, and I'll 
send you seats.
With heartiest wishes 
for the success of the 
"American Girl," and hoping 
you've made yourself 
your heroine, I am as 
ever
Sincerely Yours,
John Habberton.



Herald, N.Y., Sept. 28/80
Mr. Dan'l Frohman.
Thanks
for offer of tickets for
Miss Dickinson's play.
If you will send me
three for Saturday night,
which is my only "free"
night of the week, I will
be greatly obliged.
And won't you please
say to the lady that there's
no other woman whom
I so much want to have
see my piece, and
ask me when I can
send her seats."
Yours truly
John Habberton

Dear Mr. Habberton       
                      Mr.      
Frohman has sent [me]        
round to me your very kind
note. Thanks for what
you said. Also thanks
for what you offer. If it
is not to late for tonight     
I think I would enjoy       
gazing at the "Deacon"      
while you inspect the"Girl"
Only you are to be good
enough to remember that
I [have] had no opportunity to
amend or inform the play
at rehearsal & that Miss
Davenport has transposed
that both the lines & the
business of the first act.
Where I have the
pleasure of seeing you & 
Mrs. Halverton you are to
"tell me about it" [as I
suppose you know I have
never seen it] & to know
her always faithfully yours
Anna E Dickinson
Perhaps this "G" can stop at the 
theater for a couple of tickets--will that
save you trouble?
