The South Wallingford dramatic club
rfoip or oil
Friday evening, March 10th, to a large and
appleciative audience. 1t was pronounced
by all to be one of the best performances
OF the kind ever given here. The charact-
ers were well sustained, and most of the
troup exhibited natural ability for the
dramatic art. The drama entitled "Ernest
Maltravers," was performed with much
credit, the different parts being well sus-
tanned. Among those who performed their
parts with ease and ability, may be men,
toned Mr.. RE. Bailey, as Richard Darill
II. G. Stafford, as Lord Saxidgham G. Fl.
Holden as Sir w. Maltravers; A. r. Ames,
as Lumley Ferries; Mrs. G. H. Holden, as
Alice Darril; and Mrs. M. B. Kelley as
Lady Florence. 1t is very seldom we see
better ability shown for the stage. The
acting was we'll worthy of first class
troupe. We will here say that the comic

was also good thing, and afforded much
amusement We will not forget to men.
ton the singing by Miss Ella Earle, the
musical prodigy, which added greatly tc
the occasion. Several beautiful pieces
were rendered by her, and all spoke very
highly of this part of the performance.
The sidef-plitting farce, entitled Jumbo
Jum,' was also very well performed and
brought down the house. In this piece
Mr.. X. e. Bailey, acts the part of Jumbo
jun to perfection, and his acting in this
was Lreally side splitting. A double song
and dance was performed by Bailey bro
theirs, and was equal to anything OF the
kind we ever saw. The entertainment con
cluded with an Ethiopian sketch, entitled
"Dorson and his Agent" which was also
well acted, and caused much sport. The
performance was well arranged, and re
fleets great credit upon those belonging tc
the troupe There was dance at the close
of the entertainment, 10 which about forty
couples participated. We hope this troupe
will again favor us with an entertainment
