An exchange in speaking of Mr..
Frederick Warde in his great character
of Damon, in Banim's play of Damon
and Pythias, says: "At the end of the
second act Mr.. Warde was called before
the curtain, and at the close of the scene
with HermiOn in the fourth act, the two
were heartily recalled, the audience
even going the length of interrupting a
scene to insist upon recall. Mr.. Warde's
Damon was certainly fine piece of act
ing. Whether in the Senate denOunc-
ing the weakness of and servility of his
colleagues, or in the more tender scenes
with HermiOn, or in face of the scaffOld,
Mr.. Wade's Damon presented the man of
Syracuse clothed in all the severity Of
his iron morality"
