Correspondence between Hugh D. McIntosh, Governing Director of Tivoli Theatres Ltd (q.v.), and Martin C. Brennan, owner and publisher of Australian Variety (q.v.) regarding the cancelling of leagl action by McIntosh against Brennan. Both letters, dated 23 February 1916, had also been published in Australian Variety the previous month (7 March 1916, p7), along with a statement from McIntosh, which he requested in settlement of the issue.

The situation initially came about after McIntosh's financial stability was question in the 29 October 1915 issue of the American Billboard magazine. McIntosh believed that Brennan was behind the article, and instigated the legal action. His decision to halt the action was made after Brennan publicly denied having anything to do with the article and further claimed that as far as he was aware the statements in question were untrue.
