John Howard Payne wrote several very
successful pieces, Brutus, Home Sweet
Home and Charles III, the latter, historical
comedy, was originally acted in London in
1924 and since that time it has been played
almost all over the world. Henry Irving
and Ellen Terry played 1t in this country.
The historical traits of Charles (The Merry
Monarchy and Rochester, appear to be
pretty faithfully preserved. OF course these
last are neither very exemplary nor agree
able personages, although there are too
many to be found, who resemble them In
the haunts of fashionable dissipation. The
incident of the watch, on which the plot
principally turns, IS said to be true; but
this is rather traditional than historical.
