sterling comedy of Speed the Plough in which was
the very strong cast of Mr. H. Placide as Sir Abel

unnecessary to speak. It of the richest per-
formances Mr. Barrets Bob Handy was
capital performance only marred by the bad taste
with which he was dressed. Mr. George Andrews and
Mrs. Vernon, as Farmer and Mrs. Ashfeld, very
lively and spirited and Mrs. Abbott saw look
or act more charmingly. We very much doubt if the
comedy was playe with stronger cast. After the
