mere representation. Mics Georgia
Gay van, as May. tbs almost heart
broken wife, proved herself o fine
actress, and was highly realistic, while
Benjamin Maeinley, as Tom Blossom,
the old fisherman, carried the audience
with him from the fret The plot OF
the drama 10 simple but well conceived,
and 1t is q story such as may havc hap
pened. There are no improbabilities ;

shows how the mighty passion. love,
can cause o man to do an act which
may give him years Of sorrow and re-
morse. 1t will be presented at thu
