The show which was imposed upon
the people of Plymouth under the guise
of Uncle Toms Cabin resembled very
closely travelling circus. The charac
ters as depicted in the original work by
Harriet Beecher Stowe were far from
being accurately or even pleasantly por
trayed. Each and every actor seemed
imbued with the idea that it was all a
farce and seemed to strive to his utter
most to OverdO and exaggerste the part
asslgned to him. The entire evening
was consumed i'm presenting to the au-
dience play so completely different
from all previous attempts at dramsti
cation of the book as to rider on the ri
diculous. The redeeminR feature of the
entertainment was the music furnished
by the orchestra. No criticism what
ever could be made upol this. The
saxophOne duet with orchestral accom-
paniment was attentively listened &C
and appreciated by all.
