endeared him moro and more to those
who knew him best. He would come to
my table-he was the godfather Of my
child, you know--and men like Edwin
Adams and myself would be there with
our wine before IN. We'd say. Ed, it's too
bad, old man, you can't joins Us.
"'Oh, don's mind me- he'd reply. Il
only regret dare not, dare not--I dare
not!'
II remember once . leading painter
who lived in Brooklyn gave a grand fese
champetre which was Romanesquc in its
prodigality. Booth went. Champagne
flooded the place. He left the house and
wandered in the garden. People who met
him urged him to 60 back TO the throng.
He declined. Afterwards he said TO me:
~ suppose those people said: We
met Ted Booth down in the grounds play
ing Hamlet But IL I'D gone back I
might have been the merriest Of all tor an
hour-perhaps - bright Is any. But
when some Of the guests left they would
have stumbled over my PROSTATE figure in
the gutter and said: The brute! Why
can't he stay awayf"
,''It was because Of his martyrdom that
no took to his strong pipe, his strong ci-
CARS and his strong coffee; and they I'M
dermined his system. shattered his nerves
and drove him to premature death.
81 remember when he was playing lago
to Satvini's Othello ono night In New
York, he had taken drink or two before
coming on the stage. With his nervous
organization and stomachic troubles .
glass OF beer meant almost drunkenness.
when in the play Saivini pushed him
off, instead of staggering and recovering.
he fell full length with his head right in
the footlights. Is was an awful thing. and
You could hear the shivering 'ugh!' go
through the tbeater and across the stage
THAT ugh! sobered him in an instant,
and they had to watch him all that night
10 keep him from seif-destruction. He
felt that he had disgraced himself forever,
and it was only by the most touching ap-
peais that he could be persuaded TO go on
the next night. But At last he consented.
THAT play was 'Hamlel.' and he had
the title role. You know the entrance.
When he appeared he couldn't face the
immense audience. But men and women
rose in their chairs and shouted.
Booth! Boothl BOOTH just TO let
him know that he was dear old Booth yet,
no matter what might come.
"Don't you know. he Just stood on that
stage and sobbed aloud. He couidn't con-
troll his tears. and the people began TO
weep with him. But then he turned
and. ah. he played Hamlet that night a.
II Was never played before"
