            Dear Sir
I am extremely sorry to be obliged to send you back almost all the tickets for to-night, which I hoped to distribute amongst my friends here. I have only been able to sell two of the tickets, you left me, for which I enclose the money, and wish your other friends might have been more successfull, and your countrymen have less reason to complain of the public here, than at their first appearance. I am dear Sir
very truly yrs
