675715 February 1804; Pall Mall. 12mo 2 pp. Good on aged paper. A formal letter in the third person. Windham 'is almost ashamed' of sending Sharpe 'anything so trifling as what accompanies this note'.

Sharp's name was often misspelt by contemporaries and he is listed in the index to the online Oxford DNB as 'also known as Sharpe Richard'. 15 February 1804; Pall Mall. unknown

Aged and a little worn with short closed tear at head of the first leaf repaired with tape and the second leaf having a discoloration at one edge from tape used in mount. Signed ‘W. T. Moncrieff’. Casting interesting light on the production of melodramas in the ‘Surrey-side’ theatres. In an effort to induce him to collaborate with him on a production at the Victoria Theatre he begins: ‘My dear Cooke / Without wishing to interfere with any arrangement you may have made or may be contemplating to make - there can be no harm in my dropping a hint that the Proprietors here would be most happy to secure your Services at any time on your own terms - if at all within their means’. Such an arrangement would also please Moncrieff ‘as I have the idea of a Drama that I think very likely to prove quite as attractive as ever “My Poll and my Partner Joe†may prove.’ That play by J. T. Haines and with music by Jolly was a great success at the Royal Surrey Theatre in the same year. He ends by asking Cooke to ‘turn this over in hyour mind at your leisure and favor me with a line on the subject’. 3 November 1835; Victoria [i.e. the Victoria Theatre, London]. unknown
