WILLIAM ARCHER am writing the biography of William Archer, the

dramatic critic, translator of Ibsen, and playwright, and should be grateful for any information your readers can provide.

Any letters, press-cuttings, articles, reviews and other material which may be forwarded will be copied and speedily returned.

Particularly required are personal reminis- cences and anecdotes regarding Archer, and records of any productions of his plays.— Yours faithfully,
