The Overture to Freyschutz with the opera Band – and if von Weber was to conduct it tant mieux pour Mois en suite an Aria from Pasta or a Duet with Braham which would give Madam Pasta full time to get at | Eight o clock at the Ancient Concert – the first Act of Il Barbiere di Siviglia to follow – after which a Ballet – to conclude with Killing No Murder with Mathew and Liston – if these Entertainments can be combined, I have no doubt they will be Highly attractive – which I am sure will be as much your friendly wish as my own – now My Dear Sir George have the Kindness | to drop me a Line to inform me if you have spoken to Mrs Coutts Madam Pasta – or if you think there is a probability of my getting her assistance. I know you well excuse the trouble I give you but it is high time to announce my Ball of Fare in the News Papers yours faithfully obliged M Kelly May 2d 6 Tavistock Row Covt Garden
